Instructions
- 1
Drain the tofu and press it firmly between two clean kitchen towels or paper towels, pressing down with your hands or a heavy pan for about 5 minutes, until most surface moisture is removed. Crumble the pressed tofu into rough, irregular pieces about the size of a large pea — uneven crumbles give the best texture.
- 2
Combine the poblano pepper, onion, garlic, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and salt in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed, until you have a thick, uniform sauce.
