Aji Sauce (see recipe link above)
You can use 1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour to replace 1 cup all-purpose flour.If you don't have the right-sized cookie cutter, an empty 28-ounce can or plastic lid will also work.Ingredient Note: :Hulled pumpkin seeds, also know as pepitas, are medium-dark green and have a delicate nutty flavor. They are sold salted, roasted and raw, and can be found in the health-food sections of many supermarkets. Sherry vinegar, made from the popular Spanish fortified wine, has a subtly nutty flavor. It is great in salad dressings and can be found in most grocery stores.
