Mexico is the home of chilies! With more than 150 indigenous varieties of chilies to choose from, with each having a special use. we have exciting range of the leading and most popular varieties of dried Mexican chilies. These exceptional chilies are not only about the heat but also about their aroma and taste. In fact, many of the chilies are not ‘hot’ but impart a characteristic taste which is unforgettable. Anchos are the sweetest of all dried chiles. Also known as poblano when fresh, they are only a 1 on a heat scale of 1 to 10. This dark rich mahogany chile has a mild, fruity flavor with notes of plum, raisin, tobacco and a slight woodiness.The ancho along with the mulato and the true pasilla form the “holy trinity” of chiles which are used to prepare a traditional mole sauces. Essential to many moles, the ancho is also great in enchiladas, salsa, soups and any other sauce that may need mild heat but tons of flavor. Sliced, chopped or pureed, they can be added directly to your recipes. When using dried chiles, you can opt to toast them first for added flavor and re-hydrate them by soaking in hot tap water for about 20 minutes. Don’t soak any longer or they can become bitter. If you love Mexican Cuisine then you will enjoy cooking with the essential Ancho Chili. Serve with baked potatoes or simply enjoy with any food you already eat with sour cream. The best relief for a burning mouth isn’t water; it’s a mild yogurt or sour cream. We strongly recommend that you experiment with these chilies in your Indian dishes to provide a mysterious touch of taste and aroma to a traditional dish!Other cuisines like Chinese and Southeast Asian have benefitted from the incorporation of these chilies.

Ancho Chili’s were a very nice product. Am very pleased with my purchase.

Nice and fresh. You can rarely get fresh chiles in a market; they’re usually dry and brittle. These chiles are fat, soft, and the flavor is mild. I use them in a Mexican Red Enchilada Sauce that my husband loves. Incredibly earthy taste to the whole thing.

The dried Ancho Chiles arrived fresh and in good condition. When using dried chiles freshness makes all the difference. The chiles I find in the supermarkets are dry and crunchy to touch, which means they will be bitter and have no real flavor. The chiles from Sol Company are pliable to the touch so when you re-hydrate them they are all flavor and not bitter at all.

Rahul Prakash –
I LOVED the Ancho chiles! I tried them to toast, grind, n make enchilada sauce. It is the best sauce we’ve ever tasted! We’ll will be using these a lot. Last time I threw in a dried chipotle too and we loved it. Thank you!

Way better than grocery store.

These are pretty potent. To be honest I hate the way they smell. But I do like the way they enhance the flavor of food. They are pretty large which is nice because you don’t have to deal with cutting up multiples and deseeding them because the large size means you don’t have to do so many. Being dried as well they will keep for a long time.

These are great dried chiles. They arrived vacuumed sealed and fresh. They added the perfect flavor to favorite chili recipe. They were fragrant and still pliable. Highly recommend.
