Preparing the poblano peppers
- Take the poblano peppers out of the plastic bag. Peel them and wash them under water.
- Open the poblano pepper with a knife and make a small incision from top to bottom. (See picture above).
- Wash the poblano pepper and take out the seeds, make sure that they have been washed well already.
- Then place your chiles in another small bowl and soak them with 4 tablespoons of white vinegar for 15 minutes. If already very spicy, this makes the poblano pepper less hot.
- Take out the poblano peppers and dry them well.
- Begin to fill them with queso fresco, corn, and onion.
- Close the poblano pepper with a toothpick.
