During Hatch Chile season, it’s the fresh chiles that get everyone all excited. There’s nothing quite like the smell of chiles roasting on a warm summer day. But while green chile powder has probably been available in New Mexico and Colorado for ages, I got my hands on some for the first time, courtesy of Melissa’s Produce. They sent the hot, they know me. I first thought it might be destined for Hatch chile popcorn, but instead I made some Hatch chile tortilla chips and a yogurt dip to go with. Why bother frying your own chips when a bag is so cheap? Because you can sprinkle them with whatEVER you want! Kettle Chips does have a potato chip with green chile, but for me, it belongs on a corn chip. You can get your hands on Melissa’s Hatch Chile powder, both red and green, via their Web site. If you’re after more of a chile with citrus kick, grab a bottle of Tajin or Trader Joe’s chile lime seasoning. The sprinkle for the chips and the spice mixture for the dip is virtually the same, the amounts vary a bit to ensure you get a nice hit of flavor […]
