Ordered 10 lbs of "med" hatch chiles back in June based on the glowing recommendation by Kent Rollins
Then, several weeks later we were told that we needed to either up our order or reduce our order. We reluctantly decided to reduce our order down to 8 lbs.
Peppers arrived yesterday. We were excited as the peppers looked nice and fresh! I tasted 1 and was immediately dissapointed. Yes, we ordered Medium heat...but, this had ZERO heat and was the blandest hatch chile I have ever tasted. Green bell peppers have better flavor than this.
I hoped that roasting would help bring out the flavor. We spent the day roasting and preparing our 8 lbs of peppers for freezing.
After investing an entire afternoon, I now have 8 lbs of bland, flavorless and completely lacking ANY heat whatsoever hatch chilis in my freezer. The peppers are so unremarkable that I will probably forget they are in the freezer and will probably end up tossing the entire batch in the trash when I need the freezer space. Initially, it was disappointing to have my order reduced but it turned out as a blessing as the peppers themselves were an even greater dissapointment. Nope...not going to order any more fresh peppers here and will certainly not listen to "Cowboy" Kent, again.
Disappointment. Plain and simple. Over 2 months of anticipation for this? Never again.
