High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A chipotle, or chilpotle, is a smoke-dried jalapeno which tends to be brown and shriveled. It is chili used primarily in Mexican and Mexican-inspired cuisine, such as Mexican-American and Tex-Mex. There are many varieties of jalapenos which vary in size and heat. In Mexico, the jalapeno is also known as the cuaresmeno and gordo. Until recently, chipotles were almost exclusively found in the markets of central and southern Mexico. As Mexican food became more popular abroad, especially in North and South America in the late 20th century and into the 21st century, jalapeno production and processing began to expand into Northern Mexico to serve the Southern United States, and eventually processing occurred in the United States and other places, such as China. Typically, a grower will pass through a jalapeno field multiple times, picking the unripe green jalapenos for market. At the end of the growing season, jalapenos naturally ripen and turn bright red. There is an extensive fresh market for ripe red jalapenos in both Mexico and the United States. They are kept on the vine as long as possible.
