Instructions
- Set out a food processor. Break the stems off the top of each chile and shake out as many seeds as possible. Place the remaining dried chile in the food processor.
- Once all the chiles are stemmed and seeded, pulse the chiles until they are broken into much smaller pieces.
- Add the garlic cloves and peanuts to the food processor. Pulse again until the mixture consists of small even pieces.
- Set a medium skillet over low heat. Add the peanut oil and sesame oil to the skillet. Then scoop the chili and garlic mixture into the skillet. Gently stir. Once the oil starts to bubble, sauté the chilies and garlic for 2-4 minutes to bring out the flavors. *Be careful not to cook the salsa too long, or you could burn the garlic, creating an acidic flavor.
- Turn off the heat, and stir in the vinegar, oregano, and salt. Allow the salsa to cool to room temperature in the pan. Then move it to glass jars and allow the salsa to rest for 2-3 hours before serving.

Notes
- The longer the chiles sit in the oil the more full bodied and spicy the salsa will become.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
