Creek Canyon Catering Morita Peppers

Discover the rich, nuanced flavor of Creek Canyon Catering Morita Peppers. Hailing from Mexico, their name, meaning ‘pepper black berry,’ perfectly describes these dark, reddish-black dried chiles. Moritas are expertly smoked ripe, red jalapeños, distinct from traditional chipotles due to their shorter drying time. This careful process results in a softer texture and a vibrant, deep color, preserving their exquisite taste.
