Pasilla Sauce

Method

Pasilla Sauce

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pasilla Chiles

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the dried pasilla chiles for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat, stem, and deseed the chiles. Soak them in hot water for about 15-20 minutes until softened.

  2. 2

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook until soft.

  3. 3

    Blend the Sauce

    Drain the soaked pasilla chiles and add them to the skillet along with chicken broth, cumin, and salt. Blend everything using an immersion blender until smooth. Cook for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
