Ingredients

  • 2 morita chilies, dried
  • 1 lb tomatillo, husks removed
  • 1 garlic clove, unpeeled and cut in half
  • salt, to taste

Method

  • Take the moritas and cook them in a hot dry cast-iron skillet until they inflate and start to pop a little (about two minutes). Into the cast-iron skillet, pour water over the chiles, turn off the heat, and allow them to soften and become plumper, which will take about half an hour.
  • Meanwhile, stir the whole tomatillos in another skillet until they blister and black spots appear. Immediately transfer them to a blender. Place the garlic, moritas and a pinch of salt in the blender, and puree until smooth. It will be a deep red color with lots of seeds.
