Does anyone know how to make the white sauce that accompanies salsa at numerous mexican restaurants? It's like ranch dressing but much thicker and with different seasoning.
The stuff I'm thinking of is not cheesy at all. I do love the queso with chorizo though. This is more sour creamy and served cold.
I would be curious where people are seeing this. I have never seen it at a mexican place. Sounds interesting but I have not seen it.

I love how different areas of the same country can be so different from each other. I can not recall ever being in any Mexican restaurant that did not have mole on the menu.I haven't seen Mole in very many Mexican Restaurants either, but it's a very popular sauce used throughout Central America and the Caribbean.

I went to the link for allrecipes and read the reviews. It appears this is a VA thing at Mexican restaurants. Everyone who comments on how it is so much like the stuff they get at their favorite Mexican place is from VA!
Makes sense that it is a VA thing and so strange to the rest of you. I live in Hampton Roads, which encompasses Williamsburg to VA beach. It does accompany chips and salsa, I didn't realize it wasn't served everywhere or I would have mentioned that.
I love baja sauce, especially when we make fish tacos. I'll have to check out the link.
As always thanks for all the help.
This site is the best!
Mole huh? That taste like chicken?
The fusion between Mexican food and Mexican-American food is more of a blur everyday.
Fish Tacos are also a product from Southern Calif., but they are now very popular in Mexico!
So just because you haven't seen Baja Sauce (also a popular American invention, and a sauce used with Fish Tacos) at your local Mexican Restaurant, it doesn't mean it isn't used at many other places. I haven't seen Mole in very many Mexican Restaurants either, but it's a very popular sauce used throughout Central America and the Caribbean.
...Fish taco's are from Baja not CA. To be the real thing they come with cabage. (Cabage last longer in the heat than lettuce.)...so far I have never been served a Baja sauce with my chips. But usually I am in Mexican places where English may or may not be spoken, and I don't speak Spanish.
