How to make it

  • Chiles roasted over an open flame, or in the oven, impart a delicious smoky flavour to salsas or any dish that uses chile peppers.
  • Lay whole chiles directly on a barbecue grill, under a broiler, on a stove top grill, or over a gas flame. Grill or broil, turning frequently, until the chile skins are evenly blackened and charred all over, but the flesh is still crisp. Put the chiles into a paper bag for a few minutes to cool and steam, this helps further loosen the skins. As soon as they are cool enough to handle, the skins will slide off easily. DON'T rinse the roasted peppers under the tap or all the flavoursome juices will be lost . Slit and remove veins and seeds. If doing this with very hot chiles, be sure to wear rubber gloves and don't touch your eyes. Use the prepared chiles in sauces and salsas, in rice casseroles, on hamburgers, and in all Mexican dishes. Also great with summer squash, green beans, corn, or homemade fajitas.
