Fresh Hatch green chile hits D.C. area grocery stores
The Albuquerque Journal ^ | August 21, 2013 | Michael Coleman

Ten days ago, I wrote a column that mentioned fresh New Mexico green chile would soon be available at a grocery store in Washington, D.C. Some readers in Washington – and some who had friends or family in Washington – wrote me asking that I let them know when the chile arrives. Well, here’s your notice.

The Harris Teeter grocery store at Jenkins Row on Capitol Hill now has a small stash of genuine Hatch green chile in hot, medium-hot and (last I checked) mild. It’s $1.29 per pound. That’s probably more than New Mexicans are used to paying, but hey, I’ll take what I can get. I picked up a bunch there last night and can report that the hot stuff is pretty hot – not scorching, but it has a respectable amount of fire.

It is pretty good made in a crock pot. I normally add a medium chopped onion, a small can of chopped green chilis and some browned meat of choice. I’ve made it with canned chicken breast and fresh beef and fresh pork. It makes pretty good “prepper food” being freeze dried. IIRC, it states a 4 year shelf life but I suspect it is good for much more.
