The are a good size and fresher than others, which makes seeding and stemming them easier. Other brands are so dry (stale) that you lose half the chile trying to separate the seeds and stems from the chile. The taste is also much richer and fresher due to the quality. Also, these are available in a 1lb bag for a much better price. Despite the chiles being softer and easier to work with, I was still able to grind them to make my own ancho powder for other uses.

The are a good size and fresher than others, which makes seeding and stemming them easier. Other brands are so dry (stale) that you lose half the chile trying to separate the seeds and stems from the chile. The taste is also much richer and fresher due to the quality. Also, these are available in a 1lb bag for a much better price. Despite the chiles being softer and easier to work with, I was still able to grind them to make my own ancho powder for other uses. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best I have found *by B***N on June 22, 2025* The best quality chiles i have come across.
