Probably should have worn gloves. I used a paring knife to split each chili and then rinsed the seeds out in a bowl of water. It's a lot of work. Took me about 30-45 minutes.

I used a wooden spoon to stir it because it was too thick. NOT RECOMENDED! Worked this time, but I've definitely ruined some tools with this lazy move😬

Stream the olive oil into the puree as it's blending. Store in the fridge. This stuff keeps for a long time.
