6-8 sundried tomatoes
small handful of chopped almonds
two dried Pasilla or California chile peppers
1 ½ tsp. oregano
3/4 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. all-spice

1/3 cup olive oil

Recipe



Dry roast the unpeeled cloves of garlic over low/medium heat on a dry, thick-bottomed skillet for fifteen minutes turning until all sides are slightly charred. Roughly chop the sun drieds and roast for a few minutes turning often until browned and smoking. Toast almonds on same skillet until golden brown. Cut open chile pods, take out seeds and toast on skillet pressing down with back of wooden spoon until chile started to bubble and smoke, flip and repeat. Rehydrate the chiles in warm water for ten minutes. Add all other ingredients to blender or Cuisenart. Add chiles and a little of the water and blend until nearly smooth.
