STOP STRUGGLING! // How to Clean and Roast Poblano Peppers ❤

I grew up watching and helping my mom make delicious CHILES RELLENOS, and this was one dish I avoided even though I loved it. The process of roasting then removing the seeds and veins from the POBLANO peppers was a struggle and it is the one job my mom had me do. Once I got older and started making my own, I was on a mission to find a better and easier way of preparing the peppers for chiles RELLENOS without the struggle. This is my technique, I hope it helps you as it has helped me.❤

Now I can fix this more often since poblanos are my favorite food, no matter how its fixed it brings back memories of riding my horse around poblano pepper and garlic fields in Gilroy, Calif. The smell of these fields should be made into a perfume! 😋💕

    Peppers are pretty easy to grow actually but they do like it hot so you can’t start them too early. But most nurseries have a nice variety of different peppers. I love to grow them different types and canned them in different ways as well.

Last week I made your chiles rellenos once again and I have to say, they came out super delicious. The sauce alone Johnny goes on and on about. He even put it on the rice I served alongside our chiles rellenos. Sweet Rachel may the rest of the week bring you and Ron much joy and peace. Lots of love and blessings as always sent towards the Meinzer homestead.

    Thanks for that great explanation. A Mexican friend of mine suggested that, after they are charred, you put them in a plastic freezer bag and put them in the freezer for 10 minutes or so. That way they sweat and cool down at the same time. They are cooler to handle.

    Perfect! I love that you do not waste any food. Drives me crazy when I see a Chef on Food Network cut the top of a pepper off with at least 3/4 of an inch of pepper attached to the stem. Then throw it right in the trash. What a waste! Senseless. My daughter-in-law made your enchilada casserole for my birthday dinner. I showed her the video and she made it. It was delicious! She made it again last night for her family and said her husband, my son, loved it! He hates casseroles but this is one he happily eats 💚 you are the best Rachel!
