Serves/Makes: 0.5 cup
Ready in: 30-60 minutes

  • 8 dried New Mexico chiles
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon Tabil or ground cumin
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Seed the chiles and cut them up with scissors. Place them in a bowl, cover with warm water, and soak them until they turn quite soft, 15 minutes to 1 hour.

Drain them and squeeze out the excess water. Place the chilies in a blender along with the remaining ingredients. Grind to a paste. Place in a small glass jar, cover with a thin layer of olive oil, and seal tightly.

Refrigerate for up to 3 or 4 weeks.
