The sauce is very similar to a dip we make now and then that also incorporates some ranch dressing mix. We'll have to try it with some shrimp now! thanks:grin:

No, it is not.

Mexican Crema // BigDOG

Hey Smoke...Mexican Crema, Is fresh creme. Very similar to heavy cream. I can buy it in my local Kroger. Most grocery stores that have a Ethnic food section should have this. If you can't find it use HEavy cream,But not sour cream very different taste.
THe Poblanos are chili's not too hot very distinctive flavor.

Makes a very rich sauce!! I love it.
