Out in New Mexico…

it’s harvest time for chilies.

I’ve never been out there at this time of year but the air is filled with that roasting smell.


Man, sounds heavenly, doesn’t it?

Considering the hotness (and you can take that any way you like), it kinda sounds like hell to me >;)

LOVES me some New Mexico chilies. My mom gets them fresh every year and then freezes them to use throughout the rest of the year to make green chile stew. So good.

Oddly enough, I just had fresh Hatch green chilies yesterday ... on a pizza ... in Los Angeles.

Evidently, the owner of the pizza truck (yup, I said pizza truck) I ate at, was born in New Mexico and remembers chile season fondly and has a bunch flown in every year that he adds to the menu as a special topping.

Neapolitan style pizza, sausage and green chilies, fresh from a wood fire pizza oven and to your mouth in seconds. Awesome!
