Be sure to wear gloves when peeling them, or you will regret it!

The chilis have a ‘skin’ on them. I’ve heard it described as plastic-y, and it wouldn’t be a complement to your sausage or whatever you were using the chilis in. Blistering or charring then peeling removes this outer skin and gets you to the tender meat of the pepper inside.

I’m a big fan of Hatch chilis. I still need to go get my year’s supply, though!

That is the same here, waiting for my brother to let me know they are ready. I still have a dozen vacuum bags with 1-2 cups sitting in the freezer. Just won’t make it till next year w/o restocking.

Thanks I just finished a big bowl of pork green chili for lunch yesterday. Where’s the cold water LOL

FireHorse my experience, it depends on how they were grown. One year you can use a a TBS or two in a recipe the next you can be down to a tsp or two. I have been told the heat will vary on how the peppers were stressed during growing. I don’t know the scoville rating, but I would compare it to a jalapeno.
