A Traditional Mexican Chile
Pasilla, meaning “little raisin” in Spanish, is a long, dark chile with a wrinkled skin and deep, earthy flavor. It is one of the traditional chiles used in authentic Mexican cooking, offering mild heat with fruity and raisin-like undertones.
Its unique flavor profile makes it indispensable for moles, sauces, and seasoning blends, adding richness without overwhelming spice.
