Red Chile Sauce Recipe:
2oz dried guajillo peppers
2oz dried ancho peppers
2-6 pequin, chiltepin, or arbol chiles, depending on your spice tolerance

1. Remove the stems from each pepper and shake or scrape the seeds out.
2. Toast the deseeded peppers over medium-high heat for 60-90 seconds until fragrant
3. Soak peppers in boiling water for 10-15 minutes
4. Place softened peppers in a blender with other optional aromatics*
(*This is where the sauce gets personal and potentially freaky. I add charred onion, garlic, cumin, and Mexican oregano, but you could take it much further with ingredients like epazote, cinnamon, chocolate, fish sauce, gochujang...)
5. Blend peppers with chile-infused water until nappe consistency is achieved
6. Strain through a fine mesh

Use the sauce for:
