cook's notes

I enjoy the smokiness of chipotle's. They are the smoked jalapeno peppers that have been left to ripen to a red color. The peppers are then smoked and have a sweet smoky flavor. They are also very hot. You will usually find them in the Latino section of your grocery store. They are canned in an adobo sauce which is tomato based. To take some of the heat away, you can open the peppers from the can and scrap the white insides and seeds from the pepper.
