Modo De Preparar Chile Colorado
(Preparation of Dried Red Chile Pods)
The "ristras" that decorate New Mexico's countryside in the fall are
strings of red chiles sundrying for preservation and later use in sauces. 

All red chile recipes are prepared from native grown chile. Canned, red
chile powder available in the "spice section" of grocery stores should not
be substituted. {Usually prepared chili, chili powders, and salsas contain
a lot of ingredients that are not chile. Also, different chile peppers
have different tastes. Only New Mexico chiles taste like New Mexico
chiles. ed.] 


Temperature: 250F          Roasting Time: Approximately
                                   10 minutes

Dried red chile pods, stems removed

1. Rinse and dry chile pods.  Remove seeds, if desired.
2. Place chile pods on a cookie sheet in a 250F oven for
   approximately 10 minutes.  Turn chile pods several times to 
   avoid scorching (the chile pods will turn a deeper red).
3. The toasted chile pods may be used for preparing red chile 
   powder, or chile sauce
