It is conjectured that the Aztecs smoked jalapeño chillies because the thick, fleshy, chilli was difficult to dry and prone to rot.

These are made with genuine Morita Chipotle Chillies, smoked over pecan shells as they should be for an authentic taste.They recommend using them to make chillies en adobo or just regular chilli paste, and they are amazing with pulled pork.

Chipotles are smoked jalapeno chillies, giving a definite heat but also a deeply smoky, savoury flavour. The underlying heat of the jalapeños combines with the taste of smoke, forming a flavor distinctive to chipotle peppers.Chipotle Moritas still retain some moisture even after drying, so they are a bit leathery and pliable and have an underlying fruitiness. Therefore, you should go easy on chillies, chilli powders and blends with chilli powders in them to find the heat level you like. The chillies themselves are a bit hotter than I thought they would be, even though the chipotle chillies are in the medium hot range.
