    I am Mexican and I think you did a GREAT job 👍🏼👍🏼 we make authentic Mexican enchiladas and we do the steps and process exactly as you did for this enchilada sauce! We add a few chiles de arbol for a little extra heat 🔥. I love mine with queso fresco and a little onion, hope you can try them like that one day! Thank you for recipes! P.S. I have been making your sweet corn bread and it is a must at our family functions!!!

    Hi Carolyn. I know how to make it the other way, using chili powder etc, but I tried your way tonight, followed exact your instructions and it turned out amazing. I love the rich deep red color and it's delicious. Thank you!

    I ;am not mexican but I LOOOOVVEE mexican food. The store sauce my family did not like. But they wanted enchiladas so badly that I learned how to make them authentic. Great video. Any body who makes these will not regret it. Top with Cheese and olive and place in the oven. When done top with cut cilantro and serve sour cream on the side. Yummy, Yummy!

    so refreshing to see you cook food that 1.) turns out food you can really eat! 2.) you dont curse and scream thru the whole video! These enchiladas turned out wonderful for me. I used your recipe, just the way you said in the video and they were wonderful! I have made them for years, using chili powder, seasonings and water for my sauce and it was good. But not nearly as good as your sauce. Thank you! So glad I found you sweetheart! Keep up the good work.

      All grandmas/Abuelitas have extra steps/ingredients that are secret. Hehe. My grandmother took several secrets where we have a "base recipe" but the secret ingredients list is gone. With my daughter I don't keep secrets, I want her to know. But each person is different.

      Raul Hodge the point in her case-our families case was to keep us trying to figure out what it was and how much. It keeps the recipe an alive dynamic process rather than some dusty sad forgotten moth-eaten thing. It allows the recipe to evolve too. And then too each generation leaves its signature.

  • @reaganfaithfamilycountry3154
    @reaganfaithfamilycountry3154 8 лет назад +24

    that's what I wanted to see! absolutely perfect ingredients and instructions! Thank you so much for making the real thing. I had been doing most of what you do, but I wasn't "frying" the sauce once I had strained it. and great tip about letting the flavors marry for a day or so before making the enchiladas. also, I loved the way you crushed the oregano in your palm before adding to pot. finally, so grateful you didn't use anything canned and especially that you didn't add tomato to the sauce. Thank you you again for this perfect sauce. I recently bought some red chilies from hatch, new mexico. I got the super spicy reds. it was a really *good* sauce, but now that I've seen your extra steps, I'm thinking my next batch is going to make a *great* sauce. blessings!

    Best damn instructional video I have watched in a long time! It takes a couple of attempts to become familiar with using dried chiles but so worth it! May I add that chiles vary in heat so best to hold off on adding a hot chile like arbol until you taste first. I've had dried guajillos that were very hot and another time had them to be almost mild. Beautiful color on your sauce Carolyn you can come and cook in my kitchen anytime!

    Carolyn, this sauce has changed my life. It may seem trivial, but I can't believe I am over sixty and just learned that enchilada sauce is just chilis, garlic, and water with just a couple of additions. There are so many ersatz recipes on RUclips, but this just blows them all away. How did you learn this recipe? You are great!

      I couldn't agree with you more. I've been looking for one on the web and this is the one that I finally settled on. I'd found some recipes that used flour, tomato sauce and a number of other dried flavorings but I knew there had to be something better out there.

    • @lauracarrera1748
      @lauracarrera1748 5 лет назад

      I agree, the only thing I would drop is the cummin... I don't understand why it is even added to Mexican rice! Everything else looks delicious... And I bet the aroma must be amazing too!

    • @jonnyquest9038
      @jonnyquest9038 5 лет назад

      I am a fan of the flavor of cumin and sometimes add to things that wouldn't normally have it. I've never made Mexican rice at home primarily because I haven't found a recipe that looks good and uses whole Food instead of shortcuts. Any recommendations on a recipe source?

    Hi Carolyn, You inspired me I just made your enchilada sauce and you were right about making this is a two-day process. In my version, I did the peppers & slow-cooked chicken on day one then made the sauce and the finished enchiladas on days two. I found the sauce was indeed improved with a long simmer, plenty of the spice blend and tomato paste. I also used Queso Fresco cheese, turned out really well my husband gave it the thumbs up. I've got a couple containers of sauce in the freezer for more meals.

    Oh my goodness, this is a very tasty recipe! I just finished making it and it's my new favorite enchilada sauce. I was never satisfied with other enchilada sauce recipes I've tried in the past. Your's is just a little different than some others, but the taste is so much better. It's pretty darn easy too. for me as soon as I see an ingredient like flour or tomato sauce I just skip it and don't even bother. Given that your's had the right ingredients I thought I'd try. I look forward to trying some of your other recipes soon. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe.

I have another recipe for an Enchilada sauce, from a Mexican friend that uses Smoked Paprika, Chili Powder, Cumin, Black Pepper, Red Pepper Flakes, Cilantro, Bacon Grease , Butter, Flour, Beef Bouillon, & Water That recipe makes a great sauce too.
