Poblano peppers are part of many Mexican dishes. Usually, poblano peppers are roasted to bring out their flavor. They are spicy, but not as spicy as other peppers like habanero and serrano peppers. Sometimes they are hot and sometimes they are not; you won’t find out until you eat them. If you are up for this surprise, I invite you to taste this version of chiles rellenos.
