Notes
- Adobo sauce can be refrigerated about 1 month, in sterile jar or container.
- Freeze leftovers in thin layer, in bags. Break off piece to use in all your favorite Latin dishes.
- Heat level of sauce will depend on the heat level of the peppers. If you would like a more mild sauce, use guajillo, ancho or pasilla pepper for sauce, and jalapenos for the whole pepper portion.
