Thanks Orchid and Dawn_MO for your ranchera sauces

[anna_x]

We're new to gardening and get surprised by what grows and what doesn't. Today's haul looked overwhelming with lots of three kinds of tomatoes, way too many jalapenos (oddly not very hot), five onions, and a single green pepper. You saved me from a big argument with my husband by providing guidelines to putting it all together and making a tasty ranchera sauce. Some to use for breakfast tomorrow and lots more for the freezer. Bless you for sharing your good recipes!

The first link is Orchid's and the second is Dawn's.

So, how are the sauces different? More flavor/heat in one than another? How do you use them?

Thanks for sorting this out. I couldn't figure out how to set 2 links. smileys/frown.gif

Huevos Rancheros, enchilada sauce, ...

and I'll thin it for a Santa Maria tri-tip sandwich dip. Mmmm.

Orchid's recipe comes out a bit thicker as it doesn't add water, just a cup of tomato juice, whereas Dawn's adds a lot of stock.. Orchid's recipe calls for some chipotle which adds noticeable heat, especially when I don't measure but just break off some the mashed-up chipotle in adobo I keep in a freezer bag. Ooo-whee!

Nice over chile rellenos too

You'd have to put one in the 'Link URL' and one in the message body I guess?

 

[cheezz]

Thanks, that helps smileys/smile.gif
