Green Chile Roasting Coming Soon

It seems a bit premature (although we are almost into August), but the Whole Foods on Pearl Street has already rolled its chile roaster out to the garden area, with a big sign that green chile roasting season is coming soon. Also that they will be closer to local this year, coming from Pueblo rather than Hatch, NM. I knew I already needed to work on the remainder from last year's season, still in my freezer, and had already scheduled a corn and green chile chowder for this weekend, working in the first of Munson's local corn for this year as well. But it looks like I need to speed up using up the remainder...
