This morning I'm making an enchilada sauce (for some leftover chicken) and 
this time I'm applying a step I haven't done before - dry-roasting the 
peppers in a skillet first.  I put them over medium heat and let them get 
just to the point of lightly starting to smoke.  Also tossed in three cloves 
of garlic.

That's all starting to simmer now, but the apartment smells fantastic.  I'm 
waiting to see what flavor results in the sauce from adding that step.

BTW the peppers were several new mex, a big ancho, and a little chipotle.
