Chile, or Capsicum annuum, is also known as Poblano, Hot Pepper, Chili Pepper, Chiles, Chilies, and Chillies.

Chiles, the fruit of plants from the genus Capsicum, are members of the nightshade family, Solanaceae.

The Ancho pepper is actually a Poblano pepper that has been dried and roasted.

This Ancho Chile Powder registers at 2000 H.U., which is pretty mild (milder than the jalapeno). When handling hot peppers/powder, wear gloves, and avoid touching your eyes or any mucous membranes (Ouch!). If you do burn yourself, rinse with super hot water, and then coat with sour cream or yogurt (personal experience).
