Roast the hatch green chiles until blistered and charred.

Place the roasted chiles in a paper bag to steam for 5-10 minutes.

Peel the charred skin off the chiles and remove some seeds, leaving some for spice.

Make a slit down each chile to open it like a door.

Stuff each chile with mushroom duxelles made from cooked white mushroom buttons, cream, white pepper, and flaky salt.
