To spice up food. They can have many uses, depending on the specific dish:

  • Chiles en nogada consist of poblano chiles filled with "picadillo", which is a mixture of chopped or ground meat, aromatics, fruits, and spices.
  • Chile relleno consists of a roasted chili pepper. It is stuffed with melted cheese, such as queso Chihuahua or queso Oaxaca (traditionally), or picadillo meat made of diced pork, raisins and nuts, seasoned with canella; covered in an egg batter or simply corn masa flour and fried.
  • Chile piquin is commonly used as a spice. It is dried and converted into chili powder, mixed with some salt and is usually sprinkled over fruits such as jicama, pineapple and cucumber; to eat the treat some drops of acid lime should be added.
