Pasilla Bajio/Chilaca Chile Seeds - Mild Flavor, Rich Tradition

Elevate your Mexican cuisine with Pasilla Bajio/Chilaca Chile Seeds, the secret behind authentic mole sauces and salsas. These heirloom seeds produce versatile peppers that transform from fresh, sweet chilacas to smoky, raisin-like pasillas when dried—a true culinary chameleon for your garden and kitchen.

Why Grow Pasilla Bajio/Chilaca Peppers?

Dual-Purpose Delight: Enjoy them fresh as 8-10" dark green chilacas for enchilada sauces, or dry them into pasillas for rich, complex moles. Their mild heat (1,000-2,000 Scoville) and sweet-to-smoky flavor profile make them a staple in Mexican cooking.

Heirloom Heritage: Open-pollinated and non-GMO, these tall 30" plants yield abundant narrow peppers that mature from dark green to brown-just like generations of Mexican growers have cultivated.

Grow Your Own Flavor

Perfect for gardeners of all levels! Start seeds indoors 8 weeks before warm weather (85°F soil temp ensures germination in 7-21 days). Transplant to sunny garden beds or 5-gallon containers, spacing 30" apart. Harvest when peppers darken for peak flavor.

Packet contains: 10 premium seeds ready to bring authentic Mexican heat to your table.
