Geschiedenis & Cultuur

Aztec cooks smoked chilies to preserve late-season harvests, creating early chipotles. Jalapeños were ideal because their thick walls resisted sun-drying. The name likely stems from “chilpoctli,” meaning smoked chili in Nahuatl. Today, chipotle production thrives in Chihuahua and northern Mexico, supplying both domestic markets and global canneries. Canned chipotles in adobo popularized the flavor abroad.

Plantkunde & Kweekinstructies

Grow Jalapeños until fully red. Harvest and smoke them over pecan, apple, or oak wood at low temperatures for several days. Maintain airflow to prevent mold. Once dried, store chipotles in airtight containers. The growing requirements mirror Jalapeños: warm sun, fertile soil, and 70 to 90 days to maturity.
