    Remove the tomatoes from the vine and take the foil off of the garlic. Transfer the tomatoes and onions to the blender, then squeeze the softened garlic out of its skin into the blender. Add the chili powder, cumin, salt, and hot sauce (optional) to the blender. Hold the lid on at an angle to allow steam to escape.
