I’m emailing to ask you New Mexico’s most famous question:
Red or green?
When it comes to choosing your favorite color of New Mexico chile, it can be a tough call! But I’ll be the first to share my deep love of cooking traditional recipes using New Mexico green chile.
Back when I was in Law School at UNM, I’d prepare huge pots of green chile stew to bring to student gatherings. I made that same green chile recipe for my Congressional colleagues during the 2019 winter holiday season. I even cooked chile and tortillas for the water protectors when I traveled to Standing Rock during the protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline.
When I lived in Washington and found myself missing home, I’d cook a pot of green chile stew.
To me, New Mexico green chile tastes like home — and one of my favorite ways to cook with it during the summer months is to make a refreshing green chile salsa!
That’s why I was so excited to add our Be Fierce green chile salsa to our campaign store last week.
We sold out immediately, but here’s the good news: you can still donate to get my special recipe! It’s the same one I make for our friends and family at summer cookouts, and I’m thrilled to share it with you.
Be fierce,
Deb
