Ancho Grande chili peppers, known for their distinctive wide shape, are actually dried poblano peppers. Originating from Puebla, Mexico, the term "ancho" translates to "wide," aptly describing the pepper's broad shape when dried. Poblanos, when ripe and dried, transform into anchos, which are cherished for their mild heat and rich, earthy flavor with hints of raisin and coffee. This chili pepper has been a staple in Mexican cuisine for centuries, used in everything from enchilada sauces to mole, showcasing its significance in both culinary tradition and regional agriculture.
