Last Saturday I made my first honest attempt at duplicating Silvia's famous Rio Grande Valley sauce. This morning I had the opportunity of refining it a little bit more. Today I made the sauce a bit wetter and the flavor a little more subtler. I also poached the eggs.
I start with a ranchera sauce which is more of a tomato sauce and not a hot salsa (although I love heat!) I cheated and used canned tomatoes (fire roasted) but everything else was fresh. Well except for the scallions and bacon on the potatoes. Stole that from MS. Glenda. Note to self: Post about the jelly she made out of her grapes.
Anywho, I am to the point where next weekend (If we don't fly) I will have a real recipe. I remember my grandmother cooking. She would always throw this in and that in. I would ask her how much and she would answer, "sufficiente."
