Chile Renellos...Recipe anyone?

[farmgirl19]

Depends on where one is, and the type of chili (chile) they are talking about.

I typed chili more times than I didn't and went back and changed it in the thread. I figure, I got to share a recipe and some fun too, being it is 2Lane's Anniversary. I'll give 2Lane heck next week! Sort of like getting a free pass on one's birthday. Since I haven't had a birthday in a LONG time, this worked as a good excuse for me!

Funny the cookbook I got the recipe from had another similar recipe on the opposing page and spelled chili as chile, for a relleno recipe, but it was cheese and not beef, as was requested.

wngsprd; I'd love to spend extra time in your neck of the woods, but would have to open my own restaurant, or eatery. Not sure how well it would do, in your area. When I was traveling over the globe, I accused the chef of having a "gringo in the kitchen" when I was in Mexico the last time. I wasn't fully aware that what I called "Mexican food" was actually "Tex-Mex".

If I ever make it back you direction, I'll drag my travel trailer, and cook for the masses. I love to cook amd love to eat, but everything I make would feed an army, so I always have to share of freeze when I cook!

I didn't know the difference in Tex-Mex and just mex either until I got with my girlfriend.

Green chiles are not hot. Banana peppers are not usually hot, unless you grow the Hungarian variety that I do.

And, if you really can't handle any heat, then keep cheese, yogurt or milk handy when you are eating spicy foods. The milk based items will kill the heat, whereas water will not.

Last spring we got a hankering for cheese stuffed peppers. We had done this with Jalapeno and Banana peppers from our garden years ago. No garden this year so the wifey bought Jalapeno and Banana peppers at the store. I cut the peppers in half, cleaned out ALL of the seeds and pith, and stuffed the peppers with a couple of different types of cream cheese. :licking::licking::licking: Put the peppers in the oven to heat up and we started chowing down. :licking::licking::licking:

ullinghair::devil::fiery::yell::shocked: Those peppers, including the Bananas, were simply too hot to eat. The cream cheese should have cut the heat but the Capsaicin was just too strong. We ate most of the peppers with the help of spoonfuls of additional cream cheese and sour cream but we got to a point where eating was torture and we threw out the rest of the stuffed peppers.

We have not had a hankering for cheese stuff peppers since then. :laughing::laughing::laughing:

Later,
Dan

There is no such thing as something being too hot! :laughing:

Next time, get Hatch green chiles or Poblanos. They are extremely mild.

My mouth can handle the heat but as I age my insides can't.

I saw your pic in the Texas thread. Are you even old enough to vote yet?
