Tips for Success
Whole chiles are best pureed into a paste but they can also be ground or crushed and made into chile flakes. Remove stems and seeds if desired.
Lightly toast them for a smokey flavor and then soak them in warm water until soft. Remove them from the water and blend, adding a little soaking water as needed to get the desired consistency.
Origin
Grown by two UC Berkeley agriculture grads on a biodynamic acreage called Fire Tongue Farms, located just far enough inland from Santa Cruz to dry peppers in the sun, these guajillo chiles—the dried Mirasol variety—have a leathery, reddish-brown skin and register near the bottom (that is, mild to moderate) on the famous Scoville heat scale. Dried but not smoked, these chiles—a classic ingredient in Mexican cuisine and often found in mole—impart a subtle smokiness nonetheless, an earthy compliment their fruity, berry-like flavor.
