Remove the stems of the chiles. Then in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, cook them for 5-10 seconds on each side or until they begin to puff up a bit. Add enough warm water to cover the chiles, turn off the heat, and let the chiles soak until they are soft and plumped (about 30 minutes). Drain them from the soaking water, rinse and then chop them up. 2. Combine all ingredients except pork in a blender or food processor. Puree until a smooth paste forms, 3. Add the chile purest to the ground pork and mix well. 4. Let the meat mixture sit refrigerated for at least 4 hours. 5.

The sausage will keep in the refrigerator for a week. <> ---- CategoryRecipesBreakfast CategoryRecipesDinner
