NOTES : The chiles used Chichuahua are known as chilacas or as California or Anaheim chiles, and are different from chilacas used elsewhere in Mexico. They are roasted, placed in a plastic bag for a few minutes to ease the peeling proceedure, deveined, and sliced into thin strips.

A Message from our Provider:
“A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.”
