Red Chile sauce is a time consuming recipe, but once you master the recipe you can use it just about anything you want to add red chile sauce to. I use red chile sauce to make enchiladas, chile con carne, tamales, Pozole, menudo and chilaquiles. After you learn to make an Authentic Mexican Red Chile Sauce you will never buy the red sauce in the can again. The best part about this recipe is the freshness, savory flavor and homemade touch.
Recipe
Ingredients:
1/2 bag dried ancho chiles (10-12 chile pods)
1/2 bag guajillo chiles (10-12 Chile pods
5 garlic cloves
1/2 large onion
5 cups water
Yields:
4 1/2 cups Red Chile Puree
Preparation:
1. Rinse and remove seed & veins from chiles. Keep seeds & veins for extra spicy salsa.
2. Add chiles to hot water
3. Bring to boil for 20min until they change color. Let cool slightly.
4. Purée chiles in blender with 1 cup of water chiles were cooked in.
5. Use colander to separate pulp from the skin. Depending on size of colander you may need to do this a couple times.
Buen Provecho!
