The Chimayo has been grown throughout northern New Mexico for so many generations that it is commonly called “native chile” and seeds are often passed down through families. They are exchanged almost ceremoniously, often as a gift, or while visiting a relative. Outside of New Mexico, most people who know of the Chimayo chile are only familiar with its powdered form, called Molido.
