The dried Ancho is a mildly spicy pepper with a black-brown color and a fruity, smoky flavor. The Ancho is the dried and ripe version of the Poblano and is a widely used pepper in Mexican cuisine. The Ancho pepper is an important ingredient in many chili powders, salsas, and sauces. It's also an essential ingredient in many Mexican Moles.
The Ancho and Mulato are both dried varieties of the Poblano. The difference between these two dried peppers is when they're harvested. Ancho peppers are picked when they're ripe and red, while Mulato peppers ripen even longer on the plant until they're dark red and almost falling off. The dried Ancho is a bit fruitier in taste compared to the dried Mulato, which has a more mature and smoky flavor. Both peppers are mildly hot.
Preparation
– First, toast the dried peppers in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes. This helps release their essential oils and brings out more flavor. Next, rehydrate the dried peppers with hot water. Let them soak in hot water for 15-20 minutes, then slice or chop them to your desired size.
– You can also grind the dried peppers into flakes or powder.

To keep dried chili peppers fresh for a long time, store them in an airtight container in your pantry or, even better, in the freezer. Avoid exposing them to air, moisture, light, and heat, as this can cause them to discolor, mold, and lose flavor.
Dried peppers last a long time, but for the best flavor and heat, try to use them within a year. Click here for more info on storing and freezing dried chili peppers.
