So I did another Arbol hot sauce/salsa but this time with Roma tomorrow instead of tomatillo, otherwise same recipe.

First picture is the new batch, 2nd is the tomatillo version from last week.

Ghost is definitely redder, and has a more mellow taste I think compared to the tomatillo. Quite tasty.

  1. – 1 lb Roma
    – 10 gr Arbol
    – 2 Guajillo
    – 3 Cloves of garlic
    – salt to taste
    -1 tsp chicken bullion

    Char tomatoes, peppers and garlic in a pan for a few min. Pull garlic into a separate plate or bowl. Pull peppers and transfer to a small pan with enough water to cover and bring to a boil for 20min. Continue charring the tomatoes.

    When tomatoes are charred and soft, taller to a blender with the garlic and peppers when done. Add 1/2 cup of the pepper water, about 1tsp salt to start and 1 lg tsp of chicken bullion. Blend everything until well liquified. Taste and add more salt if needed.
