What food kop is going to bust you if you don't roast and peel? I use 
NuMex/Anaheim/Big Jim both ways. In making salsa I just stem and seed 
them and then go to a fine dice (as for Pico de Gallo). Or if making 
chile verde - same deal for some of them and roasted, peeled for 
others. I like the faint bitterness that leaving the skins on imparts 
- sometimes. Other times it's not appropriate. For those times you 
might want to seek out chilies that aren't as twisted as Hunter S. 
Thompson's brain.   Bv)=
