I was recently in NM, and picked up 1 oz of dried Hatch chile peppers (red) for fun at a farmer's market. I thought it might be interesting to use them in a recipe. When I am looking at the recipes for chiles on this site (and others), most are using fresh or roasted chiles. Also, most of the beers seem to be going for a lot of heat, and I'm more interested in a little warmth at the end of the sip, with pepper flavor and aroma on the nose.
Is that possible with dried Hatch peppers?
How many dried peppers would you recommend for 5 gal batch given info above?
Last few minutes of boil, vodka tincture, or dry hop style?
I was thinking either cream ale or pale ale... I have read to keep hops on the lighter side of the scale. Any advice?
Thanks.
