Great recipes to serve with pumpkin ale bread:
What is pumpkin ale?
Pumpkin ale is a beer that is produced using pumpkin flesh. It is a seasonal beer most available during the fall or autumn time.
What are Hatch Green Chiles?
Hatch chile is a specific chile variety that is grown in the Hatch Valley, New Mexico. They are only harvested in August and September. You can buy them fresh in the fall but they are also available canned in most grocery stores.
You can use Anaheim peppers or even the more generic green chilies if you cannot find the Hatch Green Chiles.
