It hasa light fruity nuance and a much more pronounced smoky character than itsrelative, the ANCHO. Themulato is
essential for making MOLE (2) pasilla chile [pah-SEE-yah]In its fresh form this CHILE is called a CHILACA. Its generally 6 to 8inches long and 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter. The rich-flavored, medium-hotpasilla is a blackish-brown color,which is why its also called chile negro. This chile is sold whole, and powdered. Its particularly good for use insauces. (3) ancho chile [AHN-choh]This broad, dried CHILE is 3 to 4 inches long and a deep reddish brown; itranges in flavor from mild to pungent. The rich, slightly fruit-flavoredancho is the sweetest of the dried chiles. In its fresh, green state, theancho is referred to as a poblano chile. (4) pepitas [puh-PEE-tahs]These edible pumpkin seeds are a popular ingredient in Mexican cooking.With their white hull removed, they are a medium-dark green and have adeliciously delicate flavor, which is even better when the seeds are roastedand salted. Pepitas are sold salted, roasted and raw, and with or withouthulls. Theyre available in health-food stores, Mexican markets and manysupermarkets. (5) Mexican cinnamon sticks with a delicate, floral flavor. (6) Mexican chocolate Flavored with cinnamon, almonds and vanilla, this sweet chocolate isavailable in Mexican markets and some supermarkets. Mexican chocolate has amuch grainier texture than other chocolates. Its used in the preparation ofa Mexican hot chocolate drink and certain Mexican specialties such as molepoblano sauce usually served with fowl. One ounce
semisweet chocolate, 1/2teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1 drop almond extract can be substituted for 1ounce Mexican chocolate. (7) Mexican raw sugar shaped into hard cones. Smaller chunks are sometimeslabeled panocha. If neither is available, substitute an equal weight ofpacked dark brown sugar
