Poblano Chilli

Poblano chilli is a dark green fresh chilli with a mild heat and earthy flavour, originating from Puebla. It is the star ingredient in chiles en nogada, rajas con crema, and mole poblano. It is charred and peeled before use to intensify its smoky flavour and make it easier to stuff.
