STUFFED CHILES WITH WILD MUSHROOMS AND CILANTRO SAUCE

Steps:

• Roast the whole poblano chiles over a gas stove burner or under the oven broiler until their skins blister. Remove immediately to avoid burning. Put the chiles in a plastic bag for approximately 30 minutes, then carefully peel skins off. Set chiles aside. (Optional: You may wish to make a slit in 1 side of each chile and carefully remove the seeds, leaving the stem intact.)
• Wash and dice the mushrooms. Stem, seed and dice the bell peppers. Saute the bell peppers in hot olive oil for approximately 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook over low heat for approximately 15 more minutes. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
• With a sharp knife make a small opening in the side of each poblano chile and stuff it with the wild mushroom mixture. Pour some heated sauce on each plate and place a stuffed chile in the center.
• Finely chop the shallots. In a stainless steel or copper saucepan combine the shallots, wine, and vinegar and reduce over low heat until nearly dry, about 10 minutes. Whisk in lemon juice, then whisk in softened butter, 1 cube at a time. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and bring to a quick boil, whisking constantly. Stir in minced cilantro last.

MINCEMEAT STUFFED CHILES: OTROS CHILES EN FRIO

Steps:

• Simmer the almonds in 2 cups water for 2 minutes in a 1-quart saucepan. Drain and cool. Remove the peels by gently rubbing the almonds between your fingers. Alternatively, you can substitute 1/4 cup already blanched and peeled whole almonds.
• Coarsely chop almonds and raisins in a food processor and set aside. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over a medium flame. Saute the garlic and onions until the onions become translucent. Add the ground pork and beef and continue sauteing until the meat mixture is browned. Add the pureed tomato and cloves and saute about 1 minute. Add the remaining ingredients, including the ground almonds and raisins. Continue cooking until all the moisture has been reduced. Set the mincemeat aside to cool. Fill each chile with 2 tablespoons of mincemeat stuffing. Arrange the chiles on a bed of lettuce either on individual plates or a large platter. Spoon dressing over the chiles, making sure that each one is thoroughly covered. Serve immediately.
• Simmer the almonds in 3 cups water for 2 minutes in a 2-quart saucepan. Drain and cool. Remove the peels by gently rubbing the almonds between your fingers. Alternatively, you can substitute 1/4 cup already blanched and peeled whole almonds.
• Place almonds and capers in a food processor and grind to a fine paste. Slowly add oil and process until mixture attains a pesto-like consistency. Pour into a mixing bowl and briskly stir in the wine or vinegar and salt. Spoon dressing over the chiles, making sure that each one is thoroughly covered.

CHEESE AND CHILE-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Remove the stems from the mushrooms and coarsely chop them. Scrape the gills from the underside of the mushroom caps using a spoon; discard.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter, half of the scallions, the poblano and garlic and cook, stirring, until the poblano is soft, about 4 minutes. Add the mushroom stems and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup wheat germ and cook 1 minute. Remove from the heat; stir in the parsley and season with salt and pepper.
• Stuff the mushroom caps with one-quarter each of the mozzarella and poblano mixture and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon wheat germ and generously spray with cooking spray. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the wheat germ is golden, about 20 minutes. Top with the sour cream, jalapeno and the remaining scallions.
