Hatch Chilies in Boston
I just discovered that my local Whole Foods is carrying fresh Hatch chili peppers from N.M. If you've never tried them, they are worth picking up one or two to add to any sauce. I'm a foodie who loves to try new ingredients, and this was my new find of the week. The Hatch chili isn't too spicy and is very meaty. I tried it in my beef enchilada casserole with great success, even my 5 yr. old son said it was delicious. I'm going to try a vegetarian version of the casserole for the Labor Day holiday. If it's a success I'll post the recipe.
I know the Hatch chilies have a short season, but I read on-line that they freeze well, so I'm off to my local W.F. Market to pick up a couple of pounds of them.
