Homemade Adobo Sauce

All these year, I used canned Chipotle Adobo Sauce and I love it. (not kidding) I was happy with store bought version homemade sauce recipe was on my to-try list since long. Sometime ago, I started buying dried chipotle peppers instead of canned adobo sauce. I came across a store which sold dried chipotle by pound and once I bought a bag... (glad I did) I dreamed adobo sauce until I made a few times. 

My family loves the homemade version so much that dishes like Chipotle Shrimp is on our dinner menu almost every week.

1) Passion to make homemade sauce. My Chipotle Recipe collection speak for itself. I can never have enough of it. In my books, if you like an ingredient this much you should know about it more, what is it, how to prepare from scratch at home.

2) CDH Reader's Request: Few of CDH readers asked for a homemade adobo sauce. With this recipe, I'm keeping the promise.

3) Convenience and Good Quality: Make as-much as you like with quality ingredients. That's the point behind starting the CDH blog. Homemade is better in so many ways. Now, sometimes I double the recipe and refrigerate. It keeps well for 2-3 weeks. Sometimes, I even half the recipe if I need just for 1-2 dishes. Dried chipotle peppers keep forever. These day, I never have to make a run to store when planning a chipotle recipe. I just grab few peppers and make my own sauce when I want and how much I want.
