Ground Pasilla Chile (Chile Pasilla Molido) is dark brown in color with mild heat and deep, smoky flavor. It is ground from the pasilla, one of the dried chiles in the “holy trinity” used to prepare Mexican moles. Pasilla is the dried form of the Chilaca chile and translates to “little raisin”, which describes the dried chile’s wrinkly black skin and dried fruit flavor. In addition to moles, ground pasilla chile adds authentic flavor to salsas, adobo sauces, chili, stews, tortilla soup and spice rubs for meats.
