3 to 5 large, ripe tomatoes
3 poblano peppers, or hotter variety if desired
1 serrano chili, diced
2 cloves of garlic, peeled
1 red onion, diced
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Boil tomatoes and 1 poblano pepper together. Remove tomatoes when cooked and soft. Continue to boil the pepper until cooked, approximately 10 minutes. Reserve pepper and tomato water. Roast garlic, seranno chili, and remaining peppers until dark roasted. Turn over and roast other side. Remove from oven and skin peppers while hot. Dice peppers when cooled.

In a small bowl, blend and mash garlic in 1/2 cup of the reserved pepper and tomato water and set aside. In a small skillet, sauté onions in olive oil until caramelized.
