For a smoother sauce, consider using tomato puree instead of tomato sauce. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the level of spiciness. Store leftover taco sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage. Taste the sauce before cooling, and adjust seasonings to your preference. A pinch more cumin or chili powder can make a big difference.

Mar 31, 2023I made this taco sauce last night, and it was a HUGE hit! Way better than anything I've bought at the store. I added a little smoked paprika for extra flavor.

Mar 7, 2023This recipe is a game-changer! My kids actually prefer tacos now that I make my own sauce. I've been experimenting with different chili powders to find our favorite blend.
