1/4cup Onion

1/2 tsoSea salt
Instructions
Important Notice: Always well ventilate your area before boiling chilis.
Prep fresh hatch peppers by washing and removing stems. Place in pot and add two cups of water. - I only use enough water, so they are about ¾ of the way in.
Turn stove on to medium heat, cover pot with lid, and let boil for 12 minutes (15 minutes if uncovered). - Set a timer as a reminder.
Once cooked, let sit for 5 minutes.
Using a utensil, place all peppers in a blender; do not transfer the boiled water.
Add fresh water, onion, garlic, and salt and blend for 30-45 seconds.
Transfer sauce from blender cup into sauce storage. The sauce will be smooth and easily come out of the cup.
Notes
Recipe yield: 2 cups green sauce.
Storage: Use this hatch chili within seven days for the best flavor. Allow to completely cool at room temperature before storing food in the refrigerator. This sauce can be frozen.
For tangy taste, squeeze the juice of half a lime and stir it in.
Sauce Texture Tip: Straining is not necessary. If using a standard blender, the seeds will be unnoticeable after this blend time. If you want an even smoother sauce, blend for 30 seconds longer.
This is a Hatch Chili Sauce Recipe. It is not a chunky, or a guiso. It is meant to be a thin tasty hatch sauce to enjoy spooned with foods and can be stored to freeze. Gracias con todo el amor.
