Whole foods offer the most versatility, so The Chile Guy offers whole dried chile peppers for your food service needs. We source chiles from around the world to bring you the most colorful and flavorful peppers.
The Chile Guy sells chiles, and that’s not a typo. Chiles are the name of the peppers—the capsicum that cannot or usually not eaten raw in a dehydrated form. Whole pods are rehydrated and further cooked or processed into a variety of other forms and used in recipes. Chili, on the other hand, is a spicy, meaty stew or a finished dish containing “chile peppers.” The raw uncooked product is chile, the finished dish is “chili”, i.e. “chili con carne”, etc.
Outside the American Southwest, the spellings are often used interchangeably (with “chili” being the more common spelling). But in the heart of green chile country, we know the difference, and we can help you understand which chiles are the best for your commercial application.
The Chile Guy sources and dehydrates a wide variety of specialty chile peppers, including:
