The Pasilla Bajio, also called the chilaca when fresh, is one of the holy trinity of Mexican dried chiles. Long, slender pods ripen from glossy dark green to deep chocolate brown, and when dried they turn almost black with a wrinkled texture. That's where the name comes from: pasilla means \"little raisin\" in Spanish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe flavor is what sets this one apart. Smoky, earthy, and rich with sweet dried fruit notes. Not about heat at all. This is the pepper you reach for when you want depth and complexity in mole, adobo, enchilada sauce, and stews. Pods grow 6 to 12 inches long on plants that hit about 3 feet tall. A serious producer once it gets going.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies:\u003c\/strong\u003e Capsicum annuum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeat Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,000 to 2,500 SHU \/ Mild\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smoky, earthy, raisin like sweetness with dried fruit notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Maturity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 to 80 days green, 90 to 100 days brown (ready to dry)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeeds per Pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery seed is grown in isolation tents at our Nebraska farm, keeping the chance of cross pollination to around 4%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Start seeds indoors 8 weeks before your last frost.
