Sweet heat

Mizkan America Food Ingredients Division announces the addition of Hatch Valley Roasted chiles to its line of pepper products. Sourced from the famous farmlands of Hatch Valley in New Mexico, where the perfect blend of soil and climate makes these chiles some of the best-tasting in the world, the Mizkan Hatch Valley Roasted chiles are field-picked, destemmed, washed, roasted and steam-peeled before they are diced into 3/8” pieces. The chiles are acidified, heated to pasteurization temperature and then filled into 55-gallon bags which are sealed while the chiles are still hot to retain optimal flavour. The chiles are then cooled as quickly as possible to provide a firm-textured, commercially sterile, finished product. Available in the 55-gallon bags, packed in plastic drums, the chile product can be stored in room temperature in a dry area for up to two years. Mizkan Hatch Valley Roasted chiles are Kosher (Orthodox) and Pareve. www.Mizkan.com
