Heat Index- Medium-Hot
Color Lightish green ....... Average Size This chile is 6 inches long by 1 inch wide. ....... Description Cousins of the Anaheim -- for which they are often confused -- about the same size, although more irregular. But New Mexico green chiles are much hotter, and flavorful. Most Common Uses Southwestern cooks use New Mexico greens, with their earthy, rich flavor, for green chile stew, green chile enchilada sauce, salsas and fierce chiles rellenos.

Bread, crackers, or tortilla chips are a better solution. Some say milk will do the trick!
