Chile Chipotle Meco Xatze 40 g – The Smoky and Deep Touch of Mexican Cuisine
The Chile Chipotle Meco Xatze is one of the most authentic and revered versions of the dried and smoked jalapeño chili, renowned for its intense smoky flavor and slightly firmer texture. Unlike regular chipotle, the chipotle meco matures longer on the plant and undergoes a more extended smoking process, giving it a light brown color, a drier texture, and a more robust, complex flavor.
This chili is essential in Mexican gastronomy, providing depth, aroma, and a medium heat that transforms any dish. Its smoky profile makes it ideal for preparing sauces, marinades, soups, and stews, adding a unique flavor that evokes the tradition of Mexican cooking. It pairs perfectly with meats, poultry, soups, and even modern recipes like BBQ sauces or marinades.
