Red Chile Sauce

How to make Red Chile Sauce Recipe

Ingredients:
12 dried peppers (8 pasilla, 4 ancho)
5 cups water
1/2 medium yellow onion
1 bulb garlic
1 tbsp cilantro, chopped
1 vegetable bouillon cube
Salt and pepper, to taste

Method:
Roast the dried peppers; do not burn. Soak them in water until soft.

Roast onion and garlic.

Drain the chiles, reserving 1 cup of the soaking water.

Combine chile water, peppers, onion, and garlic in a food processor and puree until smooth.

Add cilantro, bouillon cube and salt and pepper to chile sauce, and puree again until it is salsa consistency (adding more water if necessary).

With a fine mesh strainer, separate the liquids from the solids.

The solids left in the strainer are chile paste, and the chile liquid can be used as a red sauce for burritos, enchiladas, huevos rancheros, etc.

Store each of the items in a glass container and refrigerate to keep fresh.
