Here are two different styles :

Ancho-Guaajillo Chile Sauce

Serious Eat adapted from Rick Bayliss

a tomatillo based enchilada sauce also from Mr. Bayless

HTH!

Thank you but herself wants to make her own homemade enchilada sauce with an authentic recipe such as you find passed down through families from Old Mexico. Anyone have one?

My wife's family are quite authentic and they all use Old El Paso. Only the enchilada sauce though. When it comes to salsa they make their own. From what I hear Old El Paso cans are very common debris all over Mexico. ;-)
