Thanks to everyone who responded to our question.  It seems that it's
about half and half.  Right back where we started from!  By the way, I
don't know if you know this but we buy dried chipotles not canned to
cook with.  We get them wholesale, of course, and order them from New
Mexico.  That's where we get our anchos from also.  The anchos are a
little less in price and are beautiful, pliable peppers.  The chipotles
we use in 2 of our enchilada sauces, mix with smoked pork for spicy pork
enchiladas and make a creamy chipotle sauce for shrimp.
Cameron brought up a point that I'm not too clear on.  He said that
chipotles are dried jalapenos and so they are not peppers.  I guess I'm
of the opinion that since jalapenos are peppers, I would think that
drying them still makes them peppers.  Same with the drying of the
poblanos that make anchos.
Any thoughts here?? Thanks again. Judith
