I made this tonight. Luckily my neighborhood borders on a Latin
American neighborhood. No shortage of hispanic groceries. I had to
use a blender to break apart the chipoltes, but everything blended
well in my wimpy blender.
I now understand what you mean about the chipoltes. They are
powerful.
I went slightly over your 1.5 tablespoons.
The recipe is slightly too hot, but it is very good and it only cost a
little over $2 to make enough for a stew pot full of black beans and
brown rice.
I just need to reduce the chipoltes and crank up the cilantro.
Next week!
It will feel so good NOT spending $8 on salsa anymore.
