What it is

Organic dried chipotle pepper is a type of jalapeño pepper that has been smoked and dried. The smoking process gives it a distinctive smoky flavor and aroma. It is often sold whole, in flakes, or ground into a powder.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic dried chipotle pepper to add a smoky, spicy flavor to a variety of foods. It is commonly found in salsas, marinades, spice rubs, and sauces. Its heat and smoky notes make it popular in Mexican-inspired dishes and barbecue.

Health notes

Organic dried chipotle pepper is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of capsaicin, the compound that gives peppers their heat, which may have some antioxidant properties. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated capsaicinoids, but no specific health claims are made for chipotle peppers in typical food use. Evidence on potential health benefits or risks at high consumption levels is still being researched.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. It is a plant-based ingredient and does not contain gluten.
