It's that time of the year! I was at HEB today and saw a beautiful display of them. Let's make this the Official Hatch Chile Recipe Thread.
 
Spotted these on Central Market's web site. I haven't made them but they look tasty.Hatch Chile Rellenos with Crema Mexicana

2 - 3 ounces raisins, chopped
2 ounces pine nuts, toasted
9 ounces goat cheese
8 - 10 medium - large Hatch chiles, roasted, seeded and peeled
Crema Mexicana for serving

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix together raisins, pine nuts and goat cheese. Stuff the Hatch chiles with the mixture and bake for 15 minutes in preheated oven. Drizzle warmed Crema Mexicana over the chiles and serve.

Fresh Hatch Chile & Blueberry Salsa


3 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
2 Hatch chiles, roasted, seeded and chopped
3 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup fresh basil, chiffonade
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Add 3 cups blueberries to the bowl of a food processor and pulse 5 times to roughly chop. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped berries with the remaining ingredients. Toss together and serve.
 
Waiting for MrMyke to come thru with some recipes. I am pretty sure a couple of his made it into the hornfans cookbook at the top of the page. Speaking of, time to dig thru the recent threads and do an update.
 
I was in Central Market yesterday and that place is bursting at the seams with Hatch Chile stuff. Hatch Chile sausage, Hatch Chile meatloaf, Hatch Chile queso, Hatch Chile scones, Hatch Chile hummus. The list goes on and on and on.
 
I ordered a whole freaking burlap sack of extra hot from Craig Barton at Austin Spice Company.
He has a roaster set up at the Sunset Valley Farmer's Market. He'll do the whole bag for $60. It's probably about 20 pounds of chilis.
Here's last year...he roasts them in about 4 minutes. You dump them in a igloo ice chest, and they cook from the residual heat.

Happiness is a fridge full of green chilis and beer.

those in the LA area, call El Rey Farms to schedule a Saturday pick up in La Puente. Or you can pm me and have some of mine when I pick mine up.

I placed an order yesterday for a 38 pound sack for $29. I got the extra hot last year and am pussing out and going down a notch this year. The extra hot was too much heat for me and especially my wife.

Last night's dinner:

One link of Eddy's Beef and Pork Sausage, Quartered
One Large Russet Potato cut into one inch cubes
One-Half Onion Quartered
One Clove of Garlic
One-Half Red Bell Pepper, Cut into One Inch Squares
One Bay Leaf
Two Small Carrots sliced thick
Two Roasted Extra Hot Hatch Peppers, peeled and cut into strips.
S & P to taste.

I put everything into a covered saute and let it go on a fast simmer for about 30 minutes, (or until the taters and carrots are done).

Spicy.

(Even without the Hatch,) This makes a quick weeknight meal when I don't get off work until 8, (like last night).
