About Poblano

The poblano pepper is a mild chili native to Mexico, widely used in Mexican cuisine for its rich, earthy flavor and versatility. Dark green and heart-shaped, it can be enjoyed fresh or dried, where it’s then called "ancho." Poblano peppers are low in calories and packed with vitamins, particularly Vitamin C and Vitamin A, which support immune health and eye health, respectively. They also contain fiber, aiding digestion, and antioxidants that combat cell damage. While poblanos have a subtle heat, their mildness makes them suitable for stuffing, roasting, or incorporating into stews and sauces like mole. Typically, they're not high in unhealthy fats or sugars, depending on how they're prepared. As a wholesome ingredient, they offer a flavorful boost with minimal health drawbacks when cooked in nutrient-balanced recipes.
