Red Chile Pods

Over a large mixing bowl, break the stems off the pods and shake out the seeds. Break the pods into smaller pieces and drop the pieces into a waiting strainer.
Once all the pods are broken, rinse with water and then place in a large pot. Add the water, the onion, garlic, oregano and salt.
Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 10-20 minutes, until the pods are softened.
Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for an additional 10 minutes. Puree using a food processor or blender. If you are using a blender, puree in batches, until the consistency is smooth. Transfer to a waiting bowl and puree the next batch. If Chile is to thick blend, it again for smoother texture.
Place red Chile back into large pot and rewarm for 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and add additional garlic if desired.
Serve and enjoy
