Just wondering if anyone has any experience with any of these chiles from El Salvador? They may be just local names for a chile with a different name in Mexico?
Thanks!

Any info on Chile Ciruela (El Salvador) or Chile Guaque (El Salvador/Guatemala)??

Wow, not even any views in more than an hour through lunch!......anyway, from my own lunchtime research I gathered that the guaque is either the same as, or very similar to the guajillo. The ciruela may be the same as the pasa (Guatemala) and Pasilla (Mexico). Another less likely possibility for the ciruela is the chile mulato (Mexico). Ciruela essentially means "Prune" or "Plum", the texture and color of the chile looks like a prune when dry, hence its name. Pasilla typically have this look too.
These are my educated guesses/opinions. If anyone else has an opinion or knowledge in regards to these chiles PLEASE let me know. Thanks!
