  • New Mexico chiles, 2015(different varieties of chile are grown throughout New Mexico, each regional variety is known for its unique taste and shape; labels on New Mexican chile products, advertisements, descriptions of dishes at New Mexican restaurants reinforce that New Mexico chile is spelled with an 'e' not an 'i'; New Mexico Chile Advertising Act states that it is unlawful to label or advertise a product as containing New Mexico chile if the chile peppers were not grown in New Mexico)
  • Rancho de Chimayo Cookbook, 2014 :(New Mexico chile is a type of capsicum that originated in New Mexico; New Mexican chile is different than the concoction of spices, meat and/ or beans that is Texas chili. New Mexico chile can be harvested early while the peppers are green or later after the pods have turned red; businesses and supermarkets often refer to New Mexico green chile as "Hatch chile' even when they are not grown in the Hatch valley)
