Try using these chiles in salsas, sauces, soups, and stews. Great for adding authentic chile flavor to taco and fajita dishes. When using dried chiles, you can opt to toast them first for added flavor and re-hydrate them by soaking in hot tap water for about 20 minutes. Don’t soak any longer or they can become bitter.
