Your service and the quality of chiles were very good. However after I ordered I found the same brand at my local supermarket for one third of your price. Unfortunately it doesn’t make sense for me to order them again from you. I appreciate your time though.

I just wish the chili labeled “Hot” was hot. It more like mild. I love Hatch chili 🌶️ so I will keep eating it.

De-stem and de-seed 6–8 pods. Toast in a dry skillet 30 seconds per side. Soak in 2 cups hot water for 20 minutes. Blend with the soaking water, 2 garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp oregano. Strain. Use immediately or freeze in ice cube trays.

For sauces — yes, the seeds are bitter and gritty. For dishes where bitterness is fine (some braises) — leave them in. The seeds carry minimal heat (most heat is in the pod walls).

Yes — once toasted, let cool, then pulse in a spice grinder or high-powered blender. Sift to remove larger pieces. Store airtight.

Hatch Valley-grown ripe red chile (typically the same varieties we grow fresh — NM 6-4, Big Jim, Sandia, etc.). Each batch reflects the harvest.

No — different varieties, different valleys, different flavor. Hatch dried pods are brighter and less smoky than ancho, less raisin-y than guajillo. They have their own distinct NM character.
