Green Chile Q?

So how do you roast green chiles or can I do it the easy way and just open a can? Or are they the same thing? I have never bought fresh ones before. I am sure the roasted ones would taste better, be fresher and with no additives. I have all the ingredients, including canned green chiles, I want to make the gluten-free Pueblo bread from Open Original Shared Link

It would go great with a crock pot of chili.

Thanks for any tips!

If you can find fresh (locally grown) chilies get those (otherwise they are flown in from god knows where) and no on can ever be 100% sure how they were processed or harvested or grown.

If not buy a can of organic chilies

I used to roast my peppers on the flame on my gas burner. (stove)

have fun Sweetie! :)

If you decide to buy fresh chiles here's what to do. Put them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Broil under the broiler until the skin is nice and black blistered, then turn and do other side. After you have blistered them, put in a plastic bag and seal shut. Keep them in the bag for at least 1 1/2 hours. Next put them in ice cold water and the skin should easily remove. My husband and I bought a 1/2 bushel last night. We had them roast them for us at the farmer's market but it took us almost an hour to peel them but so worth it!! I bet you could grill them as well to blister the skin.

We buy 3 to 4 bushel an year. We have them roast them for us. We dotn peel them until we use them, There is no way i could unpeel 4 pushes at one time lol. we have ran out this year and been making green chili from the can. You can also buy them in king sooper stores that are already roasted in the bag. Those are great.

I am now craving green chili lol

That looks really tasty. Whole Foods usually carries several kinds of chiles. Here in the south, I usually see what I think of as green chiles called "New Mexico" or Anaheims. Poblanos would also be tasty in that recipe if you don't want much heat. Here is a link on how to roast them on a gas stove:

I think ksymonds method of putting them in a plastic bag works better. Now, if you'll excuse me I have to go make some green chile!

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels...

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?
