La Costena Chipotles Peppers In Adobo Sauce 199g

Product Information

The adobo sauce they're soaked in is slightly sweet and tangy, a mix of garlic, vinegar, and spices in a tomato puree. Chipotle in Adobo” are whole Chipotle pods preserved in a special thick herby and spicy vinegar tomato sauce. If you’re trying to add more spiciness to a dish that’s using chipotle, you may be better off using a more neutral-in-flavor chili like cayenne. If you’ve been a longtime LinsFood follower, you’ll know how much I love sundried tomato paste, for its complexity and depth of flavour. These shredded chicken tacos are simmered with chipotle peppers and lime then topped with a fresh mango salsa made with sweet ripe mangos, jalapeños and red onion.

So we have chipotles that have been rehydrated and briefly cooked in a tangy, smoky and slightly sweet sauce. If you flatten the chipotles in adobo and freeze them, you can open the Ziploc and break off just enough for a recipe. For those who worry about wasting the leftover, a practical hack is to freeze the unused portion in an ice cube tray, creating perfect small servings for future recipes. Whilst they aren’t tougue-numbing-blow-your-head-off spicy, they still need to be handle with care and it is important not to get carried away with the amount. A great efficiency hack if you don't need the entire can — or don't need the chipotles to remain intact for your recipe — is to puree it all and then use an ice cube tray to save smaller portions of it in your freezer.

Alternatively, use a whole chipotle to top a Mexican-inspired burger, or use a food processor to liquidise the whole tin and make a smokey, homemade ketchup. NOTE: You can easily add 1, 2 or even 3 extra cans of tomato sauce (or equivalent fresh tomatoes) to stretch out this recipe and feed more people. It is fruity from charred pineapple and spicy with chipotle chiles and so irresistible you’re destined to drip and dribble it just about everywhere.

On the other side, the sauce enhances BBQ sauces, baked beans and can also be used as universal spicing sauce where you feel the need for a bit more taste. You can use a flavourless oil, if you prefer, but the fruity and spicy extra virgin olive oil just works so well. Jalapeno peppers are slowly smoked to mellow out their heat and tinned in a rich adobo sauce – a tomato sauce mixed with paprika and vinegar.Reduce the heat and cook the chili on low heat for at least 1 hour to let the flavors develop, stirring every now and then. The - only a little - disappointing part to me lies in the sauce's tomatoes and especially the onions. Chipotles add meaty depth to meatless cooking, and I love how their smoky intensity plays with earthy beans. But since it packs a lot of punch, there's usually quite a bit leftover in the container once the cooking is done.

These Baked Portobello Mushrooms have so much flavor thanks to the Chipotle in Adobo sauce they're brushed with. and if you receive my weekly chilli newsletter, you will be familiar with our homemade Chipotle Paste – that would be soooo good!

Ingredients: water, chipotle peppers, onion, vinegar, tomato paste, iodized salt, dried peppers, sugar, soybean oil and spices. Use a large knife to finely mince the chipotle peppers, then use the side of the knife to grind them into a paste as finely as possible. If your recipe is using the chipotle peppers and the adobo sauce, and doesn’t already have some sort of tomato, you’ll need to some smoked paprika for the smoke factor and tomato for the sauce.
