Almost La Victoria's Green Taco Sauce Recipe
- 2 lb Anaheim chiles roast, peel, de-seed or possibly New Mexican. chiles
- 1 lb Yellow Hungarian Wax chiles seeded and minced
- 1 x Serranos and jalapeno seeded and minced
- 2 1/2 lb Tomatillos slice 1/8" thick
- 7 lb Green tomatoes slice 1/4" thick
- 1/2 bn Cilantro rough chop
- 4 x cloves Garlic
- 1 med White onion minced
- 1/4 c. Lime juice
- 1/4 c. Apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tbsp. Salt
- 4 Tbsp. Corn Starch
- Heat a large cast iron skillet to warm and toast the tomatoes and tomatilloswithout any oil.
- Do just one layer at a time and give each slice a nice dark brown color on both sides without burning.
- Remove when toasted to a glass bowl.
- Don't deglaze the pan.
- In a blender, combine the onion, cilantro, chiles, tomatoes, garlic and tomatillos in batch sizes to half-fill the blender jar.
- Puree e. If any dark brown liquid collects in the bottom of the toasted tomato and tomatillo bowl, add in this to the last blender load.
- Mix the cornstarch in the lime juice/vinegar.
- In a large stewing pot, combine the blender loads, add in the cornstarch mix and heat till the sauce comes to a low boil, mixing constantly.
- Be careful here, if you do not mix constantly the thick sauce will tend to erupt in warm little geysers of taco sauce which could burn you.
- Allow sauce to cold and add in salt to taste.
- Transfer to clean jars, filling them 3/4 full and freeze what you cannot use in a few weeks.
- Be careful not to fill the jars too full or possibly they'll break when you freeze them.
- I made a batch of sauce last year and it tastes just fine after a year in the freezer.
- The sauce keeps OK in my refrigerator for at least a month.
- * Adjust heat level to your personal taste.
- The La Victoria sauce is mild.
- 3 to 4 qts
- I only made one change, I used 1 whole bunch or possibly cilantro instead of only half (I love the stuff).
- I also put them in 1/2 pint jars so which when I use them I can use it all before it goes bad.
- a whole recipe made 11 half pints.
