Dishes from the Wild Horse Desert: Norteño Cooking of South Texas

By Melissa Guerra
Wiley - 2006

Let me start by saying I am no wimp when it comes to spice. I know chipotles, like all peppers, vary in heat, but this sauce was H-O-T, hot! I love brown salsas/sauces and this one could have been great but I think either I got a hold of a wickedly hot batch of chilies or the recipe simply called for too many (2 ounces may not sound like a lot but those shriveled, tan little monsters are light!). I added some roasted tomatoes to even it out a bit, but that's a different salsa altogether isn't it? I think this will work as a seasoning to my pot of beans and even as a way to spice up my enchilada sauce, or a milder salsa, otherwise I will use it sparingly.
