Nutritional information

Dried morita chili pepper. No artificial colors or flavors.

ORIGIN
Made in Mexico by Xatzé, a Mexican brand dedicated to the production of sauces and the cultivation of high quality chili peppers. Their specialty is macha sauces, having a variety with peanuts, sesame, among others.
PREPARATION
Xatze Dried Morita Chili is an essential ingredient for adding a smoky, moderately spicy touch to typical Mexican dishes. To use, rehydrate by soaking in hot water for 10-15 minutes, then finely chop or blend into a paste. This chili pepper is ideal for making sauces such as Morita sauce, to pair with tacos, quesadillas or tostadas. Simply blend the rehydrated chili peppers with tomatoes, onion, garlic and a pinch of salt for a rich and flavorful sauce.
For a Mexican lunch or dinner, you can use morita chile to flavor stews, adobo, or meat dishes like chicken and pork. Add it to a marinade for a smoky depth of flavor, or mix it into soups like pozole or birria for an authentic touch. For an appetizer, serve a morita chile-based salsa with totopos (corn chips) or use it as a topping for guacamole. This versatile chile will give your dishes a unique, intensely Mexican flavor profile.
