Keeping Chopped Hatch Green Chile Handy

Posted by Billy on July 6th, 2007

I then press the chile flat with the palm of my hand, squeeze out the air, zip up the bag and into the freezer it goes.

Now I have a thin layer of chopped chile that I can break off in small chunks when I just want a little bit, say enough for a single sandwich or serving of scrambled eggs.
