I've used both anaheims and poblans for rellenos over the years. The nice
thing about the poblanos is that they're larger, so they're slightly less
labor intensive for rellenos.The anaheim flavor is clearer and more in your
face, imo; poblanos have a deeper, richer flavor.

That said, I love the flavor of anaheim rellenos. When I lived in Denver I
found a lot more resturants that used them than I do down here in South
Texas. Most of the time here, it's poblanos. Seems to be maybe somewhat of a
regional preference. Maybe based on availability? Not sure.



All the best,
