The type of chiles you use will determine the final flavor. Experiment with different kinds or combinations of chiles. But this is a basic recipe for preparing a salsa using dried chiles.
Yield: 4 servings
[edit] Ingredients
- 6 large dried chiles (such as Morita, mulatto or guajillo)
or
- 15 small dried chiles (such as jalapenos or Serrano)
|
- 1/2 medium onion
- 1/4 cup vinegar
- 1 small clove of garlic
- salt
- vegetable oil
|
[edit] Directions
- Wash the chiles in water and discard the seeds and threads of chiles. Let stand in water at least 2 or 3 hours or all night. (If you do not have time, let the chiles soak in warm water for at least 30 minutes.)
- Grind the chiles and other ingredients.
- In a saucepan put a little vegetable oil. When it warms, add the salsa and cook 30 minutes or more. (The flavor of the vinegar needs to lighten or disappear. Add water, if needed.
- When cooked, you can use for chilaquiles, enchiladas, and eggs.
