Charred Poblano Soup

June 19, 2020 by LETTUCE LEAF Leave a Comment

Poblano pepper is my favorite taste of Mexico. Charred Poblano soup is a perfect combination of spicy peppers flavor, and sweetness of coconut milk. It balances the heat. Poblano pepper originally came from Puebla, Mexico. It has a distinct and smoky taste. Poblano peppers that are usually mild in taste could sometimes be tricky. Two peppers that come from the same plant can be completely different in heat.

Nothing says summer like Fried Green Tomatoes. You must know that I’m absolutely obsessed with it. I never tried anything like this until last year when we moved to the South and I was hooked.
