Pepper (Hot) - Anaheim Chili 🔥
The Anaheim Chili Pepper is really quite mild. About one kick up from a bell pepper. This California native is called Hatch when grown in New Mexico and Seco del Norte when dried. Loads of long 6"-10" tapered peppers ripen from grassy green to forest to smoky red. Thick-skinned and fleshy, tangy and sweet, tasty when fresh or cooked into meat. Try chiles rellenos or corn chowder, or make it Seco and grind into powder.
