Looking for Variety?

Customize your blend: If you're looking for a different profile, you can mix our Green Hatch powder with our Chipotle Morita for extra smokiness or our Red Jalapeño for a sweeter heat. For those wanting the flavor without any heat, you can dilute it with our sweet dried peppers like Red Poblano Mulato Pepper or Trinidad Pimento. This will still give you the earthy green flavor of the Hatch pepper without increasing the spice level.
