How to Make Picante Sauce
- Combine 1 (28-ounce) can tomato paste, ½ cup white vinegar, ¼ cup water, 2 tablespoons chili powder, and 2-3 habanero peppers (with seeds for extra heat, remove some or all for less heat) in a high-speed blender or food processor.
- Puree until completely smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Pour the pureed sauce into a clean storage container.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled and enjoy!
- (Optional) For a smoother sauce, strain the pureed mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before adding the remaining ingredients.
