Ancho chilli powder 10g
Ancho chili powder is perhaps the most popular chili in Mexico. At only 2,500 SHU (1/5), it is among the mildest varieties, making it perfect for beginners yet equally loved by chili enthusiasts. Its taste is soft and fruity, with rich notes of plums and raisins.
Thanks to its low heat, Ancho enhances the flavors of dishes instead of overpowering them. It pairs wonderfully with meat, sauces and dips, but also works beautifully in sweet creations like desserts. This makes it one of the most versatile chilies in Mexican cooking.
No wonder Ancho is often called Mexico’s national favorite chili: its mild warmth and fruity character make it a spice you’ll always want to have on hand.
