Pasilla Negro Chile Powder

Pasilla Chiles are one of the more sophisticated chile flavors and are considered a go to chile for many chile heads. When ground they are often used in salsas, spice blends, stews and in several mole sauces.

Use pasilla chile powder in  Mexican recipes such as burritos, enchiladas, tacos, tostadas and quesadillas but they’re also exceptional in cream sauce dishes (especially for fish) and when we’re feeling a bit adventurous we’ll add them to beef stew, corn chowder or meat loaf.

Pasilla Negros are considered a mild heat chile and come in at 1,000 to 2,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU).
