Salt-Free Southwest Seasoning Blend
For a delicious pepper puree that can be stirred into soups and sauces, toast peppers in a dry pan for a few minutes, then soak in warm water and puree until smooth. Thin the puree with vinegar if desired. Their heat ranges from 1,000 to 4,000 Scoville heat units. Ingredients: Pasilla chiles.
Last night I made a seared filet mignon dish that was bathed in a pasilla sauce. Luckily I had ordered these chiles recently and they were perfect for making a richly flavored sauce that consisted of roasted chiles, and broiled tomatoes, onions, garlic, cilantro and chicken stock. The thing I like about the dried peppers that Spice House sells is that they come nicely packaged and are very clean.
