I just munched my way through half a jar (16 oz jar. 7 1/2 oz, dry
weight-these are honest folks) of Chileno peppers from Swab Farms in
Lone Pine. "American Indian Style"
These are a flavorful -spicy but not tremendously hot pepper grown in
the Owens Valley since the gold rush days. The peppers got to the area
via Chilean Miners in 1849. This is a very small scale operation and
they are only marketed in a few rather local areas.
A produce/meat market I favor here in Lancaster has them occasionally,
till the supply runs out.
Swab Farms do mail order if anyone wants their number, e-mail me
privately.
