Patriot History
What is a chipotle pepper? Chipotles date back to the region of Mexico City, where the Aztecs are believed to smoke the jalapeno chili because drying them was too difficult and the pepper was prone to rot. Chipotles are popular in Southwestern cuisine. They are sold as dried, powdered or often canned in a tomato base adobo sauce.
