Zubereitung von Enchilada Sauce Estilo Guanajuato Salsa Rojo Red Sauce Guan
- Remove stems from 6 ancho chilis and tear open to expose seeds. Discard seeds.
- Sear the chilis: Heat a large skillet over high heat. Place each chili skin-side down on the hot surface. Press with a metal spatula while counting to three (or longer, until slightly charred). Repeat until all chilis are seared.
- Soak the chilis: Place seared chilis in a bowl with 1 cup of very hot water. Weigh them down (using a potato masher works well) to keep them submerged. Soak for 15-20 minutes.
- Drain and discard the soaking water.
- While chilis soak, prepare the other ingredients: Chop 1 medium onion (reserve ½ for sautéing later), mince 4 cloves garlic, and finely chop ½ cup cilantro.
- Blend the sauce: In a blender, combine the drained chilis, 2-3 dried chili pequins (adjust to taste), 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes, the minced garlic, ½ cup chopped onion, chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 1 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian option). Blend until completely smooth.
- Sauté aromatics: Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the reserved ½ onion, 2 stalks celery (finely chopped), and 1 green bell pepper (finely chopped). Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Combine and simmer: Pour the blended chili mixture into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Bring to a boil over high heat, whisking constantly (it will splatter!).
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, whisking occasionally.
- Use immediately or transfer to a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid, cool completely, and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
