Cómo preparar Mole Coloradito Oaxaca
- **Prepare the Chile Paste:** Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Toast the ancho chiles on both sides until blistered and slightly charred (about 2 minutes per side). Transfer to a bowl.
- **Soak the Chiles:** Add the raisins and cover the chiles with boiling water. Let soak for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, until completely softened.
- **Blend the Chiles:** Drain the chiles and raisins. Puree in a blender with enough water to achieve a smooth paste. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pot, pressing to extract as much pulp as possible.
- **Add Chocolate:** Stir in the chopped chocolate and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- **Prepare the Aromatics:** Toast the garlic and onion quarters until softened and slightly caramelized (about 5-7 minutes). Transfer to a blender.
- **Toast Almonds:** Toast the almonds until fragrant (about 5 minutes). Let cool slightly.
- **Blend Aromatics and Spices:** Add the toasted almonds, cinnamon stick, salt, pepper, thyme, and oregano to the blender with the garlic and onion. Puree until smooth, adding water as needed.
- **Combine Pastes:** Strain the aromatic mixture into the chile-chocolate mixture. Stir well to combine.
- **Simmer the Mole Paste:** Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, for 15 minutes, until thickened to the consistency of a paste.
- **(Optional) Store the Paste:** Cool completely and store the mole paste in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to six months or freeze for longer storage.
- **Prepare the Mole Sauce:** Toast and peel the tomatoes. Puree and strain the tomatoes into the mole paste.
- **Simmer the Sauce:** Pour in the broth. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to the consistency of heavy cream.
- **Season and Serve:** Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve the mole sauce over cooked chicken or turkey, sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds.
