Step by Step Method

Step 1

Over low heat heat a dry skillet until hot (10 minutes) and then toast the ancho chiles until they have softened and begin to toast and change color (10-15 seconds per side).DO NOT BURN.

Step 2

Place chile in bowl and cover them with boiling water and let soak for 10-15 minutes until soft; drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the liquid and set aside.

Step 3

On the same skillet over medium heat roast the tomato, turning a few times to get even charring (8-10 minutes). ***You can always char the tomato under the broiler or on a grill, turning halfway for about 10 minutes.

Step 4

In a blender place the chiles and the reserved liquid also with the rest of the ingredients including the tomato (-salt) and puree until smooth; strain through a side into a pitcher, cover and refrigerate.

Step 5

Serve chilled or over ice. It is traditionally served along side tequila as a chaser.
