Poblano Pepper

Poblano Pepper is a mild, dark-green to reddish chile native to Mexico and widely used in Mexican and Southwestern cooking—commonly roasted, stuffed (chiles rellenos) or added to salsas and stews. It’s prized for its smoky, slightly earthy flavor and relatively large, thick walls that hold up well to stuffing and roasting. Nutritionally, Poblano Pepper is a low-calorie, nutrient-dense vegetable and a particularly good source of vitamin C, providing about 70mg per 100g, along with modest fiber and very little fat. Overall, Poblanos are a healthy, versatile ingredient that adds flavor with minimal calories while contributing vitamin C and fiber to dishes.
