An ancho chile is the dried version of a poblano pepper. The pepper lends a dark red color and savory flavor to the recipes in which it's used, adding a mild to moderate amount of heat. Ground or powdered ancho chile is a commonly used ingredient in many Mexican recipes. When making chile rellenos, whole ancho chiles are rehydrated in warm water and filled with rice or cheese.
