Red Chile Sauce

36 medium dried red Anaheim chiles
3 teaspoons chopped fresh garlic
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups chicken stock

Rinse, stem and seed the chiles, and place in a pot filled with water. Cover; bring to a boil over medium heat, reduce heat, and simmer 20 to 30 minutes, until tender.

Drain the cooked chiles and place them, along with the garlic and salt, in a blender or food processor. Blend to a thick puree. Add the stock and blend for another minute. Press the sauce through a fine sieve.
