Frontier Co-op® Chipotle Peppers (Capsicum annuum) are named from the Nahuatl word ‘chilpoctli’ which means ‘smoked chili.’ They have been used since the time of the Aztecs.
Chipotle is a Mexican ingredient that impacts many kinds of dishes. It is a versatile spice that adds depth to any dish, from savory to sweet. Use it for sauces, soups, sandwiches, quesadillas, pizza, grilled chicken, salad dressings, and much more!
Frontier Co-op Chipotle Peppers have a spicy and distinctly smoky flavor. They feature a rich aroma that is both intense and complex. Since this seasoning is smoky and earthy, it has become an essential addition to various dishes that have a little sharpness.
Our chipotle pepper is cultivated and manufactured in the United States using non-irradiated practices. It is kosher certified.
