Steps:
- Give the jalapenos a good rinse and de-stem them. Be sure to wash your hands after handling them. More info on handling hot chiles.
- Saute a roughly chopped 1/2 onion and 2 whole, peeled garlic cloves in a glug of oil over medium heat.
- Once the onion is browning you can add 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano, some freshly cracked black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cumin (optional). Briefly cook until fragrant and then add: the de-stemmed jalapenos, 3/4 cup white vinegar, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer and then add everything to a blender.
- Add 8-10 sprigs cilantro and the juice of 1 lime to the blender. Combine well or to your desired consistency. I usually leave it a bit chunky but you can always blend it thinner.
- Add mixture to three 5 oz. bottles or a small Mason jar. Store in the fridge where it will keep for at least a month.

Steps:
- Pulse jalapeños, garlic, lime juice, and salt in a blender or food processor until puréed. With motor running, slowly drizzle in oil until a thick sauce forms. Add cilantro and pulse a few times until chopped and incorporated. Taste and add more jalapeño, if necessary.
- Do Ahead
- Sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and refrigerated.
Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: For a milder sauce, use poblano or Anaheim peppers. For a spicier sauce, use serrano or habanero peppers. For a good balance try using half poblano and half serrano peppers.
- Roast the peppers: Roasting the peppers brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on the grill.
- Remove the seeds and ribs: The seeds and ribs are the hottest parts of the pepper. Removing them will help to reduce the heat of the sauce.
- Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender will help you to create a smooth and creamy sauce.
- Add other ingredients to taste: You can add other ingredients to your sauce to taste, such as garlic, onion, lime juice, or cilantro.
- Simmer the sauce: Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Conclusion:
This jalapeño mild sauce recipe is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is perfect for those who love the flavor of jalapeños but don't want the heat.
