      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      8    Chile pods; whole/dried,
           -Cleaned
      2    Cloves garlic; peeled
      1 ts Oregano
      1 ts Salt
 
  Choose the dried chiles for your dish. They range in "heat" from mild
  to very hot, so ask your merchant to point the way. Prepare the
  chiles by slitting or cracking them open and removing the seeds and
  veins. The seeds and veins are what makes the chiles hot, so you
  should clean the peppers according to how hot you wish them to be.
  Place the chile skins in a bowl and add enough hot tap water to
  cover. Allow them to sit for 1 hour, then drain, reserving the
  liquid. Place the pepper skins in a blender and add enough of the
  reserved water to bring the total amount in your machine to 1 pint.
  Add the garlic, oregano and salt. Blend until the mixture is thick
  and smooth.
