Directions :

In a large deep pot, combine pork and water. Bring to a boil, skimming scum that floats on top.

When the broth clears, add onion, garlic, bay leaves, and 2 tablespoons of salt. Lower heat, cover and simmer for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours, adding more water in 1 cup increments as needed to maintain about 4 quarts.

Remove stems off chili pods. Pry open and remove seeds. In a bowl, soak in about 2 cups warm water for about 30 minutes or until softened.
