"The perfect sauce to cover your enchiladas! This is so much better then the expensive bottled enchilada sauce and much cheaper to make, Plan ahead, this sauce must be made a day in advance to allow the flavors will intensify, just heat the sauce on top of the stove over low heat until simmering and add in then the flour/water slurry. Since this is a sauce to be used for enchiladas this makes a lot, it freezes okay but will thin considerably"
