FWIW, I've come up with something that looks like:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (ice-9 pretty-print))

(define (print-hash-map h)
  (map (lambda (x)
       (newline)
       (display (car x))
       (display ":\n")
       (map (lambda (x)
              (format #t "~a:\n" (car x))
              (pretty-print (hash-map->list cons (cdr x)))
              (newline))
            (hash-map->list cons (cdr x)))
       (newline))
     h))

(print-hash-map (hash-map->list cons (dataset-csv-reader "rand.csv")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I think the above is clanky as I already know the
structure of my hashmap before-hand.
