Moritas are smoked ripe jalapeños, which means they're a type of chipotle. However, they're smoked for a relatively short period of time, leaving them more fruit-forward and less powerfully smoky than their cousin the chipotle meco. Morita chiles are fantastic when you want a sauce or salsa that's sweet and fruit-forward, yet still pleasantly smoky. Try them in rubs and marinades - they're wonderful for replicating some of the flavors that you'd otherwise only get by using a smoker!
