About Green chile

Green chile, a staple in Southwestern and Mexican cuisines, is a vibrant, mildly spicy pepper that adds depth and flavor to countless dishes. Commonly grown in regions like New Mexico, these peppers are typically roasted to enhance their smoky profile and used in sauces, stews, or as a topping. Green chiles are rich in vitamins A and C, offering antioxidant properties that support immunity and skin health. They also contain capsaicin, known for its anti-inflammatory benefits and potential to boost metabolism. Low in calories and fat, they are a great addition to a balanced diet. However, they can be spicy for some and may irritate sensitive digestion systems when consumed in excess. Beyond their nutrition benefits, green chiles serve as a cultural cornerstone in many recipes, representing a unique blend of flavor, health, and heritage.
