Well, fancy that.

It was four years ago - almost to the day - that I posted about my embarrassment on finding that I had been mispronouncing quinoa.  Well here's another one - chipotle, which I've always tended to pronounce to rhyme with "bottle" whereas (and I should have known this, as it's Spanish, which is a language I am reasonably conversant with) it should be chip-ot-lay.  But what I've only recently found out is that it's not a chilli pepper in its own right - it is in fact a jalapeño pepper which has been smoked and dried.  No knowledge is ever wasted, as my Gran used to say.
