If we do not have the wonderful Canarian potato, we could serve any new potato.

The amount of salt is approximate but for each kilo of potato we will use a quarter of a kilo of salt.

How to make the mojo Canarian red picon?

• In the Canary Islands, mojo picon is usually made with piconas peppers and palm peppers. It is common that in the Penísula we do not have these unique peppers of the island, so they can be replaced by other ingredients. For example, picona pepper for cayenne and palmero pepper for choricero pepper.
• Remove the seeds and stem of the peppers, leaving them in warm water that rest and hydrate. This will make it grind better. Peel the garlic and if possible remove the germ or inner part, so that it is more digestive.
• We proceed to beat with the blender, in a suitable container, the garlic clove, salt, cumin, cayenne, hydrated pepper and paprika. Add the olive oil and vinegar and crush with the blender, until the mixture is homogeneous.
• And with this we already have the rich mojo red. Remember that red or picon mojo , is not only ideal for wrinkled potatoes, but it is also perfect for meat and fish dishes.
