Tips:
- Choose fresh and ripe chayotes for the slaw. Look for chayotes that are firm and have a smooth, unblemished skin.
- To make the slaw, use a sharp knife or a mandoline to thinly slice the chayotes. This will help the slaw to cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the dressing.
- For the chipotle puree, use dried chipotle peppers. These peppers have a smoky and slightly spicy flavor that pairs well with the chayote slaw.
- To rehydrate the chipotle peppers, place them in a bowl of hot water and let them soak for about 30 minutes. Once they are soft, remove them from the water and pat them dry.
- When making the dressing for the slaw, use a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and lime juice. This will create a creamy and tangy dressing that complements the chayote slaw.
- Season the slaw with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other spices, such as cumin or chili powder, to taste.
Conclusion:
Chipotle puree and chayote slaw is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer party or potluck. The slaw is made with thinly sliced chayotes, which are tossed in a creamy and tangy dressing. The chipotle puree adds a smoky and slightly spicy flavor to the slaw. This dish is sure to be a hit with your guests!
