Red Chile Mustard
This mustard gets its heat and color from ancho chile powder. Ancho chiles are dried poblanos and they have a flavor that I describe as that of a spicy raisin. I do recommend that you look for this variety for its pure deep flavor and don’t use a generic blend labeled “chile powder.” Red chile mustard is great on any beef or turkey burger and also makes a tasty dipping sauce for fries and onion rings.
