Ingredients

Method (preview)

  1. 1

    Heat a large cast iron skillet to hot and toast the tomatoes and tomatillos without any oil.

  2. 2

    Do just one layer at a time and give each slice a nice dark brown color on both sides without burning.

  3. 3

    Remove when toasted to a glass bowl. Do not deglaze the pan.

  4. 4

    In a blender, combine the onion, cilantro, chiles, tomatoes, garlic and tomatillos in batch sizes to half-fill the blender jar. Pure.

  5. 5

    Mix the cornstarch in the lime juice/vinegar.

  6. 6

    In a large stewing pot, combine the blender loads, add the cornstarch mixture and heat until the sauce comes to a low boil, mixing constantly.

  7. 7

    Be careful here, if you don't mix constantly the thick sauce will tend to erupt in hot little geysers of taco sauce that could burn you.

  8. 8

    Allow sauce to cool and add salt to taste.

  9. 9

    Transfer to clean jars, filling them 3/4 full and freeze what you can't use in a few weeks.

  10. 10

    Be careful not to fill the jars too full or they'll break when you freeze them.
