Did you know jalapenos are one of the most popular peppers in the world? And they have so much to offer! We can actually trace them as far back as the Aztecs who would apparently smoke these chilies to preserve them. Allowing them to dry out naturally would not quite work � jalapenos are quite a fleshy pepper, and so when left to dry they would usually rot instead. The smoking process added an extra special flavour, really bringing out the heat. When jalapenos are smoked and dried, they are often called �chipotle.� These lovely, spicy green peppers first received their name from �Xalapa� which is the capital of Veracruz, Mexico. Anglicized slightly, they became Jalapenos. And these little peppers have truly got a big taste. Just a little goes a long way, and a little jalapeno goes a long way in this recipe for Cheesy Bacon Jalapeno Rolls � giving them just the right amount of zing!

In America, bacon is most often cured and smoked, and different flavours can be achieved by using a variety of wood, or rarely corn cobs. This process of smoking and curing can take up to eighteen hours. The Virginia Housewife, possibly one of the earliest American cookbooks, gives no indication that bacon is ever not smoked, though it gives no advice on flavouring. American bacons include varieties that can be smoked with hickory or corncobs and flavourings such as honey, molasses, and occasionally cinnamon. Bacon can vary in sweetness and saltiness and may come from the Ozarks, New England, and the upper South states such as Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.

Cheese is a food that is derived from milk and produced in a wide range of flavors, textures, and forms by coagulation of the milk protein casein. It uses the proteins and fat from milk, usually the milk of cows, buffalo, goats, or sheep. During cheese production, the milk is usually acidified, and adding the enzyme rennet causes coagulation. The solids are separated and pressed into final form. Some cheeses have molds on the rind or throughout. Most cheeses melt at cooking temperature.
