I always use "chile" to refer to the capsicum. I use "chili" to refer to the different varieties of meaty beany stews.

Not here. If it contains NM chile, it is NM chile. You eat chili in Austin or Cincinnati. You eat chile in New Mexico.
A meaty, beany stew is not what you usually find here. Chile in NM is usually a sauce, although there are meaty, beany combos also, usually to be put in frito pies. |

No one really cares except for the people who live in Chile. Really. As long as it tastes good use whatever spelling you like. |

Ha! One of my chef instructors always used to tell us everything we ate in school were just "practice" calories...lol. I'm glad to see the Christmas Cookies and Manna fall into that sort of category!  |

Lol. As long as it takes good!
That's just my method I use in my own writing to keep them separate to avoid confusion. I do that with coriander too- I use cilantro to refer to the herb part of the plant, but use coriander to mean the seeds. |
