I reconstitute them in boiling water, simply wash them first, then pour
boiling water over them. Let them sit for half an hour, remove stems, then
simmer them, with a couple of cloves of garlic, chopped, an onion, chopped,
and then after about 10 minutes simmer, into a blender, mush it all up, then
seive the resulting liquid.....great, simple red sauce, or Salsa Colorado.
If I want it hotter, I will add a couple of dried habs! Great stuff, simple
to do, and quick! Then I freeze the salsa in an ice cube tray, and !voila!
velly hot and velly cold salsa !
Simply drag a couple outta the freezer, and toss 'em into spagettis sauce
fer instance!  Cheers, Doug in BC
