Anaheim | Hot Pepper

Anaheims are easy to grow and are a popular choice for cooks because they are hotter than bell peppers, but milder than jalapeños. Anaheim peppers are green when unripe and turn red when fully ripe, and are often used for roasting, stuffing, or adding flavor to dishes. Dried Anaheim peppers are known as the New Mexico, California or Colorado chile, have thin skin, and can range in color from burgundy, maroon, to dark red. They have a mild, subtle heat and a smoky-sweet flavor. They're one of the mildest dried peppers available.
