Puree dried pasilla chile peppers, tomatoes, and tomatillos for a delicious homemade salsa negra, perfect for authentic enchilada sauce.
Ingredients:
  • 3 dried negro (pasilla) chile peppers, stemmed and seeded
  • 0.75 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed
  • 0.25 white onion
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled
  • water to cover
  • 0.75 pound Roma tomatoes, halved lengthwise
  • 0.5 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules, or to taste
Instructions:
  • Place the chile peppers in the bottom of a small saucepan, then add the tomatillos, onion, and garlic. Pour enough water into the pan to almost cover the tomatillos, and layer the tomatoes over them.
  • Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil. Simmer until tomatoes soften, roughly 5 minutes. Then, remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool for approximately 10 minutes.
  • Drain most of the water and blend the mixture until smooth. Add chicken bouillon to taste.
