How to Make Gourmet Black Mole Sauce
- Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the basic mole paste and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes to release its aroma.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the tamarind concentrate and chicken broth until the concentrate is fully dissolved.
- Add the dissolved tamarind mixture to the saucepan with the mole paste.
- Stir in the processed huitlacoche, Mexican oregano, ground cloves, and cayenne pepper (if using).
- Bring the sauce to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Uncover and simmer for 5-7 minutes more, or until the sauce has thickened slightly to your desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve the rich mole sauce generously over your cooked chicken or turkey. Garnish with fresh cilantro or toasted sesame seeds, if desired.
