Ever wonder why New
Mexico, the "Land of Enchantment" and Hatch, NM in particular, are
so widely known for our chile crop?
New Mexico is a mosaic where various cultural ingredients
intermingle and complement each other, while each retains its basic
identity. The mosaic has been collecting pieces since Coronado's
expedition.
Perhaps the most essential ingredient for any New Mexico recipe is
the famous chile, or chili pepper that grows in 2,000 different
varieties. And each and every one of them is spectacular in taste!

Depending on the
variety, growth and harvest conditions, "hotness" can vary. Your
cook/waiter will know which is hotter. If you're the adventurous
sort, ask for "Christmas"--a sample of red and green chile/chili
served side-by-side.
New Mexico is the leading state in pungent chile/chili production
with more than 21,000 acres under cultivation in 1998. The Capsicum
species, encompassing a wide range of colors, sizes, shapes and
spiciness, are roasted, stewed, fried, cooked or simply added fresh
off the plant. Chile, or chili generally comes in either a red or
green sauce.Join our Newsletter mailing list!
