You definitely need to cook the peppers in the water before blending them. Add 3 or 4 chicken bouillon cubes and one coarsely chopped onion to the water, along with the other ingredients, bring to a boil, cook peppers at least 10 or 15 minutes. Remove peppers from water, add to blender, add just enough of reserved cooking liquid to blend. You will need to blend these for a really really long time. When you think they are done, blend them again. Strain through a fine mesh strainer, and you will have perfect red chili!

Yes you should soak the chilis before...Add them to a pan and bring to a boil cover and let soak for 30 minutes I did! But strain that soaking water and gradually add to your blender to blend the mixture...It worked for me along with lot's of garlic.

Maybe I made a mistake but 5 cups of water seemed a bit much for my margaretta blender. Also was I suppose to soak the pods because blending they just broke them up. Anyway if I try again I will soak and maybe use chicken or beef broth for liquid. Over all it did not make a good sauce for tamales. Maybe someone else will have better luck
