This delicious chile has a mild to medum heat and it’s very similar to the ancho pepper, but slightly sweeter with an earthy, complex flavor. When fresh, the mulato chile starts dark green like the jalapeno, maturing to a red and even brownish color. It is usually sold in dried form displaying a very dark brown or even black color. It is about four inches long by 2.5 inches wide and has a taste similar to chocolate, smoky with notes of cherry and tobacco. The mulato chile rating in scoville units is 2500 to 3000 units, which defines it as low in heat, perfect to add in moles, stews, sauces or soups. The best way to use the dried mulato chile is to discard the inner seeds and simmer it in hot water or stock until it rehydrates and becomes soft. It is at this point that it can be diced, minced or liquefied to add to your favorite Mexican dishes. The mulato chile is commonly used in moles along with the ancho and guajillo dried chiles.
