The Chimayo pepper is a landrace variety of the Capsicum annuum species that grows in the town of Chimay\u00f3, New Mexico. Only about 200 hectares of Chimay\u00f3 peppers are harvested each year, and the peppers are considered to be one of two of the state’s best chilies. The Hatch pepper, also found in the area, is another superior New Mexican chile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the chilies are grown in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, they are also cultivated in the arid terrain. Approximately 29 days of rain fall here each year, and the rest of the year is characterized by temperatures of eighty degrees or higher. The chilies grown in Chimayo have a smooth, wrinkled skin and look sun-dried. They are about four to six inches long and have a thick, dark flesh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
