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.
Honeslty, there were three reasons to make chipotle sauce at home:
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.
Easy! Isn't it?

Steps:
- While the sauce is cooking, I smoke the red jalapenos in a 400 degree oven. Slather the peppers in canola oil and place on a cookie sheet. This takes approximately 30 minutes. Turn the peppers frequently so that they are blackened all around. Do not burn them, just blacken them. You still want a nice interior red flesh. Once they have cooled, slit the peppers down a side, but keep them whole hole.
- Combine all of the SAUCE ingredients in a pan and simmer, covered, over low heat heat until the liquid is reduced to about a cup. This should take about an hour. Once the adobo sauce has reduced add the smoked japapenos to it and simmer for 5 more minutes.
- I like to take about 5 peppers and sauce and put them into small containers and freeze them until ready to use. This adobo sauce recipe will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator in an airtight container, or you can freeze the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce for up to a year.
- FREEZE THE CHIPOTLE PEPPERS IN ADOBO SAUCE.
- There are several ways to freeze the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. You can pour them into a large zip lock bag and then freezing them flat. This will allow you to easily break off pieces as you need them.
- You can also puree the chipotle peppers in the adobo sauce before freezing them in the zip lock. If you puree them, you can make tablespoon sized mounds on a plate and then freeze the plate OR put them in small containers. You can then take the frozen chipotle puree mounds and put them into a single zip lock.
