Yes Danny N. – I do have a "dream job". Developing thousands of recipes every year for cookbooks and magazines is a lot of work but it is a lot of fun too. After I taste them in our test kitchens and decide they are delicious enough to publish, I type them in the Betty Crocker Kitchens style. For example, when I want to use garlic, I would type: 1 clove garlic vs. 1 garlic clove. Both are correct but we editors choose one way to write every ingredient and every technique in order to keep our style consistent.
When I'm not sure if an ingredient is spelled correctly, I pull out my copy of the Food Lover's Companion (4th edition), by Sharon Tyler Herbst and Ron Herbst. It's kind of a food dictionary and encyclopedia – all in one. According to this book, an ancho chile is a dried poblano chile – the sweetest of all the dried chilies. A chipotle chile is a dried, smoked jalapeno chile, which much hotter than an ancho chile. (Danny, I hope that answers your question from your comments on Tuesday.)
This book would be a great holiday gift for any food lover!
