CHILE GARLIC PASTE



Chile Garlic Paste image

If you're looking for more heat without the characteristic smokiness of the chipotle, just add a few ordinary dried red chiles. For Mexican-style chile paste, add a bit of cumin, and some oregano or epazote. With good curry powder or garam masala you'd produce the kind of paste you see in northern India. You can make a blend similar to harissa, the classic paste from North Africa, by adding coriander and cumin. If you use fresh herbs or aromatics (including garlic), refrigerate the finished paste and use it within a day or so for maximum freshness and oomph. If all your seasonings are dried, the paste will last a couple of weeks at least. Remember this, though: Chiles can burn. If you have rubber gloves, use them. If not, every time you touch a chile, wash your hands with warm soapy water several times and be careful not to touch your eyes. The heat belongs on the table.

Time 45m

Yield About 1/2 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

10 to 15 dried whole chiles, preferably a mixture of mild and hot, about 2 to 3 ounces
2 tablespoons neutral oil, like grapeseed or corn
Salt
2 cloves peeled garlic, optional

Steps:

  • Put chiles in a bowl and cover with boiling water and a small plate to keep them submerged. Soak for about 30 minutes, or until soft. Reserve a bit of the soaking water. Clean each chile: remove stem, then pull or slit open; do this over sink, as they will contain a lot of water. Scrape out seeds, retaining some if you want a hotter paste.
  • Put chiles, any seeds you might be using, the oil, a large pinch of salt and the garlic, if you are using it, in a blender or food processor. Purée until smooth, adding a spoonful of soaking water at a time, until consistency is a thick paste.
  • Use immediately or cool, cover tightly, and refrigerate for up to two days. Just before serving, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest chilies and garlic: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the flavor of your paste. Look for chilies that are plump and firm, with no signs of bruising or blemishes. Garlic cloves should be firm and free of sprouts.
  • Adjust the heat level to your preference: If you prefer a milder paste, use less chili peppers or remove the seeds. For a hotter paste, use more chili peppers or leave the seeds in.
  • Roast the chilies and garlic before blending: Roasting the chilies and garlic will enhance their flavor and make them easier to blend. You can roast them in a preheated oven or on a hot skillet.
  • Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender will make quick work of blending the roasted chilies and garlic. If you don't have either of these appliances, you can chop the chilies and garlic very finely by hand.
  • Add oil and vinegar or lemon juice: Once the paste is blended, add some oil and vinegar or lemon juice to help preserve it. This will also help to balance out the heat of the chilies.
  • Store the paste in an airtight container in the refrigerator: The paste will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator. You can also freeze the paste for up to 6 months.

Conclusion:

Chile garlic paste is a versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It can be used as a marinade, dipping sauce, or spread. It can also be added to soups, stews, and curries. If you're looking for a way to add a little extra heat and flavor to your food, chile garlic paste is a great option. Experiment with different recipes and chilies to find the perfect paste for your taste.
