Salsa Chipotle

Did you know the Chipotle chili name derives from the Nahuatl word “chilpoctli”, which means smoked chili pepper? The Aztecs used a smoking process to preserve all kinds of foods, which allowed the items to be stored for long periods of time. Chipotle chilies are large jalapeño peppers that are first dried and then smoked. They can also be dried over smoke to give it a more intense and flavorful smokiness.

Our Chipotle sauce is a creation from our Mother. It is a perfect balance of spice and sweetness with a deep and complex heat.
