What it is
Organic green chiles are a type of pepper that is harvested before it fully ripens, giving it a bright green color and a milder flavor than its red counterpart. They are a variety of the species *Capsicum annuum*, native to the Americas. The term 'organic' means they are grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
Why it's used
Green chiles are primarily used to add a distinct, slightly spicy flavor to foods. They are a key ingredient in many Mexican and Southwestern dishes, and are commonly found in salsas, dips, sauces, frozen meals, and as a topping for various entrees.
Health notes
Green chiles are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of vitamins A and C, and contain capsaicin, the compound responsible for their heat. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated capsaicinoids, but no specific health concerns are typically associated with the consumption of green chiles in typical amounts found in food.
Allergen info
Green chiles are not a major allergen. They do not contain gluten.
