It's a wonderful time: 2024 Hatch Chiles!

[Erik Tracy]

My local Vons got in this year's crop of Hatch, New Mexico green chiles.

They had two selections: mild and hot. I got some of each to make a blend



Roasted on the Weber and ready for steaming to peel


Peeled and diced - the aroma filling the house was intoxicating. Great flavor - just right, with a lingering heat on the lips and tongue. This will go great on the green chile cheese burgers planned for tomorrow!

I like green chili cheese burgers and don’t have them enough.
I’m going to revisit that.

We make hatch Chile smash burger this time of year along with green chile cheeseburgers.
We also make enchiladas, Chile verde, and NM green Chile stew (my favorite).

In the off season, we make these items with fresh Anaheim chiles with an added Jalapeño (1 per 4 Anaheims).

IMO there are few things better than the smell of roasting chiles. I need to get in to my local market and see if they have them in stock yet.

I just placed an order with my local grocer for Saturday pickup, 1/2 box of hot, they roast them out in the parking lot.

Here in Colorado, the road side stands and farmers markets this time of year are full of (i) Palisades peaches, (ii) Olathe sweet corn and (iii) hatch chiles.
