Chipotle Puree image

Chipotles are jalapeno chiles that have been slowly dried over smoke. This puree gives an authentic mexican flavour to many dishes. Use the substitute if you can as it's just as good. From the Fresh Mex cookbook.

This puree is a great way to use up leftover chipotle peppers. I usually make a big batch and then freeze it in ice cube trays. That way, I always have some on hand when I need it.
