About Poblano peppers

Poblano peppers are mildly spicy chili peppers originating from Mexico, renowned for their rich, earthy flavor and versatility in various dishes, particularly in Mexican cuisine. Dark green and heart-shaped, they are commonly roasted, stuffed, or used in sauces like mole. Poblano peppers are a low-calorie, nutrient-dense food, packed with vitamins A, C, and B6, as well as potassium and fiber, all of which support immune health, metabolism, and digestion. They also contain antioxidants that help fight inflammation. When dried, they are known as ancho chilies, often used in spice blends. Poblanos are low in fat and naturally free of cholesterol, making them a heart-healthy option. However, recipes using poblano peppers may become less healthy when paired with heavy creams or fried preparations. Overall, poblanos are a flavorful, nutritious ingredient suited to a balanced diet.
