Chile Addiction in New Mexico

Chile Addiction in New Mexico - Local Obsession

Рет қаралды 178,051

Күн бұрын

Welcome to Local Obsession, where we highlight niche regional specialities. Every region has a food they are obsessed with-in Hatch, New Mexico, that something is chiles. In this pilot, we meet characters like Jo Lytle of Hatch Chile Express and Dr. Paul Bosland (aka Dr. Pepper, aka The Chile Man of New Mexico State University's Chili Pepper Institute).
Throughout, we learn about green chiles and red chiles (they come from the same plant), that the correct spelling is chile (not chili) and that New Mexican chiles is best served with enchiladas, tacos, and burritos-or really, with anything, if you ask most New Mexicans.

@@SWEETPEA.522 I have to admit that I use canned enchilada sauce (blasphemy!)... If I make the rolled kind, I stuff them with ground beef, onions, garlic and cheese.

I don't do lettuce or sour cream (have to try that!), but ALWAYS with a fried egg on top. Sadly, only in the southwest do Mexican/New Mexican places understand that... (currently on east coast).

da broncobabe you can only find THAT kind of proper blue sky in New Mexico. It almost seems unreal, fantasy like, but the sky is very therapeutic if you think about it?? Haha, there’s just something very soothing and satisfying about not only that proper blue sky but the whole experience of being there soaking up the culture, the food including the aroma of it all around you wherever you go and the beauty of the land surrounding you. I live in California myself but my entire family pretty much on my Moms side lives there originally migrating from Spain, but my Mom raised us New Mexico style and of course we’ve been there many times to visit family and all else. Now my Mom has passed, I miss it even more so. I’m very proud of my roots and brag about New Mexico as often as I can!

@@SWEETPEA.522 I think the sky in Colorado is pretty special as well. My mom is from Santa Fe, but married a gringo. Like you, my sister and I grew up in California, but went to Santa Fe every summer and Christmas. Only three cousins (including my sister and I) did not grow up there, thus none of us really speaks Spanish. My mom is a lousy cook - Hamburger Helper a lot - but made pinto beans, enchiladas and sopaipillas occasionally. She never made flour tortillas. I remember as kids friends would ask what we did over the summer, but they couldn't figure out that New Mexico was part of the US. Sad. Colorado is and will forever be home to me after living there nearly 20 years - I misd it terribly!!!

I was born in Santa Fe and currently living in Yuma AZ. Every year I plan a trip to Hatch during harvest time and buy 3 sometimes 4 of the large 'gunny sacks' of the 'super hot' Hatch green chilie have it roasted there in Hatch and take it back home, bag it and freeze it; and that gets me through til the next harvest. Like the lady in the video, I eat chilie either the frozen green or the dried red pods every day. My food would have no flavor with out it. I started eating chilie as a toddler and now sixty plus years later it's still a big part of my life; I know that probably sounds strange to those who don't have the 'addiction' but all I can say is my life would be rather 'dull' without it. And for the record I only buy chilie that was grown in Hatch, I've seen lately that many grocery stores try to pass off California chilie by calling it New Mexico 'style' chilie but it absolutely is NOT the same, I can tell the difference in a heartbeat. None of that Cali crap chilie for me!!

New Mexico people are funny, they call themselves Spanish but don’t want to be called or be associated with Mexico, Mexican isn’t a race we are an Ethnic Group. Besides if you or both your parents and all your grandparents weren’t born in Spain that means that you’re not Spanish, the majority of people in Mexico are mixed with European and Indigenous Blood, do you Spanish people in New Mexico see what I’m getting at 💁🏻‍♂️? If you’re so Spanish why aren’t your eating Paella, tapas and wine? From what I’ve seen most of your food is mostly Mexican influenced with a touch of Southwest.
