112 pounds (750 g) Anaheim or green New Mexican chiles

1tablespoon (15 ml) unsalted butter

1small onion (approximately 314 ounces [92 g]), cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces

When butter is hot and bubbling, add the onion, garlic and jalapeño mixture and sauté for about 4 to 5 minutes, until softened but not browned. Stir in roasted chiles and cook for another minute. Add flour and stir and cook for 2 minutes. Add stock and bring to a boil. Add salt and reduce to a simmer for about 25 minutes. Insert the Cuisinart® Smart Stick® into the saucepan, making sure the protective guard is submerged.
