Red Chile Fire And Ice Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds. Stir in the chile powder and cumin and cook 30 more seconds.
• Add the tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until reduced to a sauce-like consistency, about 25 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and puree (add water if necessary). Add the honey and more salt and pepper, if needed.

Steps:

• Cut off stem ends of tomatoes and roast them in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until their skins blacken. Transfer to a blender or food processor. Dry skillet and return to high heat. Add dried chiles and roast them, stirring, until they begin to release their aroma, about 3 minutes. Transfer chiles to a bowl and pour water over. Leave to soften and rehydrate, 10 to 15 minutes. Add softened chiles to tomatoes. Taste chile water; if it is not bitter, add 1 cup to food processor and reserve remaining water separately, or use plain water. Wipe out skillet, heat olive oil over high heat, add onion and saute over medium heat until browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer onions to food processor along with chipotle pepper with its sauce, garlic, cumin, oregano and salt to taste. Puree to a fine paste, stopping once or twice to scrape down sides of workbowl with a rubber spatula. If needed, add a little more water to processor.
• In a large skillet heat vegetable oil until just smoking, add chile puree and heat until sizzling. Fry sauce, stirring continuously, 3 to 5 minutes. If sauce becomes too thick, thin it with a little more chile water.
• Serve warm with tamales or grilled meats. Or cool and refrigerate for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Remove stems and seeds from dried chile pods. Rinse and place in 4-quart pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let pods steep for 30 minutes.
• Drain pods in a colander and reserve juice. Place softened pods into a blender or food processor, adding just enough reserved juice to barely cover. Blend to a fine consistency. Pour the resulting pulp into a fine sieve or colander and allow the extra juice to drain out, stirring occasionally.
• Return this pulp to the 4-quart pot and add the salt, oregano, and garlic. Bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste to adjust seasonings. If the sauce tastes bitter, add the tomato sauce. Simmer for 5 more minutes.
