For a spicier sauce, leave some of the jalapeño seeds in the peppers when mincing. Adjust the amount of jalapeño to suit your heat preference. A dry sherry, such as Amontillado or Fino, works best in this recipe. The sauce can be made a day or two in advance, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
