"Hi. My name is Jenny Villagomez on behalf of Expert Village and I'm going to be showing you how to use chiles California for your chilaquiles plate. We're using chiles California. They are dried red peppers commonly known as Anaheim chiles. Now we're going to lightly fry these suckers. Just enough to make them slightly malleable so we can get the best earthy flavor. Tear off the tail and shake the seeds out. Seeds pop in hot oil. Wear protective goggles when possible. With a pair of tongs, quickly, evenly fry all the sides of the pepper. It takes about 3 seconds. Be sure to drain peppers as hot oil may get stored inside. Look at the color of the pepper. It's a lighter shade of red and orange. Notice the difference? Now we're ready to make our chilaquiles sauce. "
