SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE IN THE WORLD OF NEW MEXICO CHILE. THE CHILE PEPPER INSTITUTE AT N-M-S-U IS RELEASING IT'S LATEST CREATION. IT'S CALLED THE NUMEX SANDIA SELECT. INSTITUTE RESEARCHER DANISE COON SAYS THIS CHILE HAS BEEN AROUND FOR A LONG TIME, USED AS A RED CHILE. SHE SAYS GROWERS WANTED TO SEE IT DEVELOPED FOR USE AS A GREEN CHILE. SHE SAYS IT MAKES A GOOD GREEN CHILE VARIETY BECAUSE OF ITS THICKER MEAT WALL.
