Chipotle powder is made by finely grinding jalapenos peppers that were slowly smoked over a natural wood fire. This slow smoking of the jalapenos peppers creates a chipotle powder that imparts a wonderfully smoky & spicy flavor to whatever it is added to. Chipotle powder has a long history of use in traditional Mexican cuisine and in recent years has become common place in the United States, especially the southwest.

Morita Chipotle Powder is the variety of chipotle most commonly found in the United States. Morita Chipotle powder starts with fully ripe red jalapeños that are smoked over a natural wood fire just until the chiles are dried. They are then ground into a fine chipotle powder with an intense smoky aroma and a hot and smoky flavor.
