- A Morita chile it’s a smoked jalapeño, much like a chipotle but smaller and fierier.
- Dried and crushed Morita chiles are ideal for use in soups, stews, beans, chilis, or other recipes that simmer a long while on a low heat.
- Morita Chile is also sometimes called “Chipotle Colorado,” “Mora Chile,” and “Black Dash red chile.”
- Just a little sprinkle of Morita Chile brings a kick to vegetables, meats, and sauces. The fruity undertones of Moritas are delicious with tomato or pork dishes. Add to chili, sauces, and moles.
- This jalapeño is left on the vine long enough that will eventually turn red.
