Chamoy
From 'Tu Casa Mi Casa' by Enrique Olvera
This sauce does it all; it's sweet, salty, and spicy! It's a coomon flavour in Mexican candies, but also a great accompaniment to both sweet and savoury dishes.Ingredients
- 2 guajillo chillies, seeded and deveined
- 90g dried hibiscus flowers
- 200g sugar
- 2 tbsp salt
- 80g tamarind pulp, no seeds
- 240ml orange juice
- 120ml distilled white vinegar
- 120ml lime juice
Recipe
- On a frying pan over high heat, toast the guajillo chillies on all sides for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Let them cool to room temperature.
- In a blender, combine the hibiscus flowers, guajillo chillies, sugar, and salt, and process until you form a powder.
- Transfer the mixture to a small pot and add the tamarind pulp, orange juice, and vinegar.
- Cook over a medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the sugar dissolves.
- Simmer for 15 minutes, until the mixture reduces by half and turns viscous. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and let cool to room temperature.
