做法
分步操作
- 1
Roughly chop the red bell pepper and red chili, and peel the garlic cloves.
约 3分钟
烹饪提示: For a milder sauce, remove the seeds and membranes from the red chili before chopping. For extra heat, leave them in.
- 2
Combine the chopped red bell pepper, garlic cloves, red chili, ground cumin, sweet paprika, red wine vinegar, and salt into the bowl of a blender or food processor.
约 2分钟
- 3
Pulse the ingredients repeatedly until they form a coarse, textured paste, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
约 2分钟
烹饪提示: Ensure all larger pieces of bell pepper and garlic are finely minced before proceeding to the next step, as this will contribute to a smoother final sauce.
- 4
With the blender or food processor running on a low speed, slowly and steadily drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture emulsifies into a smooth, cohesive sauce.
约 3分钟
烹饪提示: Adding the olive oil gradually is crucial for creating a stable emulsion, which prevents the sauce from separating later. A thin, continuous stream works best.
- 5
Assess the consistency of the sauce; if it appears too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time, blending briefly after each addition, until your desired pourable consistency is achieved.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示: Always start with a small amount of water and add more incrementally. It's easier to thin a sauce than to thicken it.
- 6
Taste the Mojo Picón and adjust the seasoning as necessary, adding more salt for flavor enhancement or additional red wine vinegar for a brighter tang.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示: Allowing the flavors to meld for a few minutes after seasoning adjustments can give a more accurate taste profile.
- 7
Transfer the prepared Mojo Picón to a clean, airtight jar or container and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes before serving.
约 1分钟
烹饪提示: Chilling the sauce not only allows the complex flavors to fully develop and meld but also helps to slightly thicken its consistency, making it ideal for dipping and drizzling.

妥善保存
This versatile sauce is a fantastic accompaniment to traditional Canarian 'papas arrugadas' (wrinkled potatoes). It also pairs beautifully with grilled fish, roasted chicken, or as a vibrant spread for sandwiches. For a delightful appetizer, serve it with crusty bread or a platter of fresh crudités. Consider a dry, crisp white wine like Albariño or a light-bodied red to complement its bold flavors.
