Description
Chile relleno — a charred and peeled poblano chilli, stuffed with cheese or picadillo (spiced ground meat), dipped in egg white foam batter, fried, and served in a tomato sauce — is the defining preparation of Puebla and one of Mexico's most technically demanding everyday dishes. The technique involves three distinct operations: the charring and peeling of the poblano, the preparation of the egg white batter, and the frying — each requiring precise execution.
