the final consistency is very pudding like, you could fold some eggs in it, top it with bread crumbs and have a nice casserole/scalloped corn dish.

scrumptiouschef: I'd take your great sounding recipe in post #34 and add it to a basic non-sweet bread pudding recipe, creating a pudding that is savory.

Just been working on organizing my cookbooks, (been collecting for a while). Anyway, One of the ones I recently came across was a copy of "Award Winning Recipes from the Annual Hatch Chile Festival" It's the 5th edition put out in 1989. Not sure about the recipes in it though, editing was non-existent. The Grand prize winning recipe from 1984 only lists amounts for 4 ingredients, 3 more are used in the instructions, so I guess they are to taste? Whatever, it's neat to look through & check out the uses for peppers.

What an excellent idea!!

Hatch Chile Corned Beef Hash
One potato, grated through large holes of a box grater
An equal amount of home corned beef, chopped (brined, boiled, then cooled for ease of more controlled shredding and chopping)
1/2 Spanish onion, diced
3 Hatch chiles, seeded, ribbed, and chopped

Fry in a tablespoon or so of oil until a crust begins to form, seasoning with Kosher salt and fresh-cracked black pepper midway through. Enjoy.

Hatch Hash is good.

No measurements:

Roast, peel and seed some Hatch chiles. Dice

Fry up some diced potatoes and onions, mix in Hatch chiles. Season with salt and pepper.

You can eat it like that or add some yummy calories by adding Mexican Crema. Cook that down, add some white cheese if you want and eat it in tacos or in an omelet or with a spoon.

Not bad over a steak, either.

I tried gator jerky... one itty, bitty bite.

I'd use pork and it sounds delicious.

Pork or chicken either one would work as a gator substitute. Gator just happens to be really delicious. You can order it online from Best Stop in Scott LA

I regret to report my part of the country has a serious shortage of gator meat, but on the plus side, that's probably due to having no local alligators. Overall, that may be a fair trade off.

I wonder what a 1/2 lb of shredded smoked poultry with a 1/2 lb of pulled pork would be like as substitute protein.

Not at all like jalapenos, but if you can get Anaheim or California peppers they are similar.

Since I have never seen Hatch chiles in Michigan are they essentially a larger jalepeno ( no wise comments) and /or can jalepenos be substituted?

We get them often when in season. But use then just like other peppers, the mild ones like bell peppers, the hotter ones like hotter peppers.

Sounds good but I'm getting lazy in my old age. I'll use store-bought Corned Beef.
Do you rinse and dry the potatoes before cooking??

Have I done that? Sure, but it's far simpler to parboil the potato(s) the night before (8-10 minutes in boiling water), then to refrigerate. The next morning the spud is ready for grating and an easy fry.

Unfortunately we don't have Hatch Chiles here in Ohio. I can get them canned online but it's not the same as the fresh. Just ask anyone who has had a green chile cheeseburger at Bobcat Bite!

Fiesta Mart,where I shop in Austin, stacks up the boxes that the chile peppers are shipped in and they're stamped with a cool looking "Product of Hatch New Mexico" stamp.

Plus they are radically delicious. They taste like cucumbers and watermelons crossed with Poblano but with way more heat. If loving them is wrong then I don't want to be right.

Not one to burst anyones bubble but many stores have been known to market Hatch, New Mexico chili with product that isn't really from Hatch. There was a law regarding this just recently passed making it a crime to advertise anything but real Hatch, New Mexico chili.

I ride through Acadiana at least twice per year. I can get about 40lbs on my bike. NuNu's, Best Stop and Johnson's Boucaniere are my favorites but I've never had bad meat from any of the little spots in the region.

Scrumptious, where do you get your andoulle? I tried the fresh stuff Randall's sells and it's dissapointing.

Since you're close to Louisana, you should be able to get some on-line pretty quick.
One of my Favorite places is Poche's Market in Beaux Bridge LA
