ROAST, PEEL AND SEED the pasilla, Anaheim and red peppers, then dice them.
Preheat oven to 325F. Heat the oil in a medium ovenproof skillet over
medium heat, add the onions and jalapeno peppers and cook, uncovered, until
the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, tomatoes,
roasted peppers, dried chiles, cumin, cinnamon and salt. Cover and place in
the 325F oven for 30 minutes. Remove the chili base from the oven and
scrape into a bowl. Divide into family portions and place in the freezer
for up to 6 months.
