We use a brand called La Costena which is chipotle peppers in Adobo Sauce. It table of contents reads as follows:

Chipotle Peppers
Vinegar
Tomatoes
Onions
Sugar
Salt
Paprika
Soy Bean Oil
Spices (?) no idea what this is though.

The grocery store near me caters to the population of the region. I am not sure what the current blends are. they have 3 r 4 different color cap.

Actually Goya makes six different ones.

For a long time, I thought that only Goya made it. There are several makers and the name is descriptive of the spice mix not the manufacturer.

I wish they carried that around here. Yummy!!!

I actually buy this brand at Walmart and Kroger's here Lefty. Oh it is a bit hotter than one would imagine for Chipotle peppers in vinegar.

Here you go this is a picture of the 7oz can I buy.

You got that right. You could go out to dinner for that. lol

 

[joec]

I use a couple of strands when I make it myself. I've also used Turmeric in place of saffron the "Poor Man's Saffron".

 

[Adillo303]

great stuff, josie. thanks.

i don't have one signature dish, but i'm known by family, friends and co-workers for a few.

i've been making sunday gravy forever. and shrimp and scallop fra diavolo.

then there's my carolina style pulled pork, daube provencale, london broil with bok choy sauce, split pea soup, manhattan clam chowder, stuffed baked trout, chicken parm, sausage and peppers, armstrong's pork chops, pork tenderloin with mustard and fennel, two potato soup, lemony smothered chicken ...

hmmm, i'm sure there's more. gotta think. i can produce recipes for most if anyone's interested.

I'd love your recipes for stuffed baked trout, sausage and peppers and lemony smothered chicken Thanks!

 

[GotGarlic]

I have several dishes I make that people always love - lasagna, moussaka, chicken enchiladas, bruschetta with homemade pesto and homegrown tomatoes, Greek marinated grilled chicken with tzatziki sauce, lemon-soy marinated grilled chicken and veggie kebabs, Asian-style chicken pasta salad, and poached salmon with tarragon sauce.

According to my family it's my spaghetti and meatballs/sausage which was my mothers' recipe that I've tweaked.

I also make chicken paprikash and breaded pork chops that are often requested.

Gosh, I don't even know if I could list them. I have many dishes that I make, at home and at work, that are to-die-for.

My Clam Chowder (made that last week), Beef Stroganoff (last night), omelettes (two this morning), Smoke-Roasted Chicken, pulled pork, etc. At work, several of my dishes are on the menu. I have at least one member that can usually identify a new dish as mine, just by the taste.
