Anaheim peppers are typically used in Mexican and Southwestern cooking. Mainstays of American Mexican cuisine, canned green chiles are made from Anaheim peppers and provide a nice flavor and some added heat to a dish. These peppers are a milder meaty pepper that grow 6-8 inches long.

These flavorful hot peppers take about 80 days to mature. Anaheim pepper plants grow to be 28-34 inches tall. Peppers will be dark green with thick walls. Much milder compared to jalapeno and ancho chili peppers.

If you're wondering if Anaheim peppers are named after the city in Southern California, then you'd be correct. They were first grown here commercially by a businessman named Emilio Ortega who founded the company that still sells canned green chiles under his name.
