HATCH 1ft RISTRAS

Hatch 1ft ristras are decorative strings of dried red chile pods, traditionally made in the Hatch Valley of New Mexico. These 1-foot ristras are handcrafted by tying together sun-dried chiles in a tight, neat bundle.

While they add a beautiful Southwestern touch to kitchens and patios, ristras are also functional. The chiles can be used for cooking—just remove a pod, soak it, and turn it into a rich red chile sauce.

Hatch ristras are a symbol of hospitality, warmth, and the spicy spirit of New Mexican culture.
