Special
Think Mexican, think Jaggers Fine Foods, S38. The Chilli Mojo range includes mulato, smokey chipotte and poblano chillies. "Mulato (moo-LAHT-oh), literally ‘light brown’ or ‘mixed’ is a close relative of the Ancho / Poblano chilli. It’s thick-fleshed pods dried slowly, leave a richness similar to plums with chocolate overtones. It’s a fantastic stuffer for Chiles Rellenos and essential for the classic Mole Poblano."
