DARK, RICH, UNMISTAKABLE
Pasilla Pepper, the Chile Behind Mole’s Depth
Pasilla peppers are dried chilaca chiles, prized for their dark, wrinkled skin and rich flavor with notes of raisin, licorice, and mild smoke. A key player in mole negro and complex sauces, pasilla brings depth and gentle heat to traditional Mexican cooking. At Latin Specialties, we source pasilla peppers for consistent color, flavor, and quality, case after case.
Dark, rich, and deeply complex—pasilla pepper is the depth behind a great mole.
