Rico Rico – 100% Natural | Authentic Mexican | Bold Smoke Flavor
Chipotle Morita Chiles are smoke-dried jalapeños that bring a deep, complex flavor to countless dishes in Mexican and Latin American cuisine. Measuring 2–4 inches in length, these rich red-brown peppers are smoked until dry, giving them a fruity, earthy heat and a uniquely robust aroma.
Used in salsas, braised meats, chili, and stews, these medium-hot chiles are a staple in Salsa Seca (dry salsa) and barbecue sauces. Grown and processed in Mexico using traditional methods, these peppers offer the perfect balance of smoke, heat, and flavor to elevate your recipes.
