2. Cook the onions, garlic, and habaneros, turning occasionally, until blackened on all sides and the garlic is softened. They may not cook at the same rate, so remove them from the skillet as they are done. Peel the garlic and remove the stems from the habaneros. Add them to a blender, along with the green onion bottoms and reserved green tops and: ¾ cup sour orange juice, or equal parts orange juice and lime juice; ¼ cup distilled white vinegar; 1 teaspoon salt
