Get to Know the Chiles of Northern New Mexico, Cousins of the Hatch Chile | Eater
"A Taos market known for its artisanal chile-roasting counter run by a locally celebrated roaster whose family has grown chiles since the 1980s. The roaster—trained from adolescence and a long-time employee—practices an old-school, purist technique using a hand-held roaster for precise control, listening for the right flame and then ‘sweating’ the pods in a plastic bag to blister the skins, producing deeply flavored, properly blistered chiles that visitors can sample." - Diana Spechler
