    Rita very kindly sent me some chipotle chilis; home-smoked over applewood and lavender stalks - just divine! I halved this recipe and used 4 of the chipotle peppers that she sent me - and it was so easy, plus the SMELL was tantalising! I made this up to use in her chipotle compound butter. I need to grow jalapeno peppers now - as these were addictive! Thanks on many counts Rita - for the gift of the chilis and the recipes! FT

    This is a great recipe. I had to extend the simmering time to 2 hours because it was just too thin for personal taste (I like to put it on tacos so it needs to be thicker). This definitely tastes much better than the canned chipotles en adobo. They're drowning in vinegar for the most part. I'd rather taste the smoky chipotle, as you do in this recipe.

    We used dried chili peppers because we have a huge bag of them we got from the farmer's market. We stemmed and seeded about 20 of them for this recipe. We had to take a photo of it on our stovetop because of the wonderful color and the alluring aroma! (ok, you can't smell it but it smells great)! We used it to make Caramelized Adobo Onions which we put on chopped sirloin steaks. For those that like heat, this is a wonderful sauce!
