Definition:
[chih-POHT-lay] This hot chile is actually a dried, smoked jalapeño. It has a wrinkled, dark brown skin and a smoky, sweet, almost chocolaty flavor. Chipotles can be found dried, pickled and canned in adobo sauce. Chipotles are generally added to stews and sauces; the pickled variety are often eaten as appetizers. See also chile.
