The adobo sauce from grocery stores can often taste too tomato-y, often diminishing the flavor and aroma of the chili. In this one, made by hand in small batches, that smoky chipotle flavor rings loud and clear. Five different pepper chili pepper varietals are used here to impart a layered, smoky-sweet taste. It’s not competing with the sauce, but being enhanced by it. It’s earthy, with a BBQ-like sweet smolder and quite spicy, but not too much. We especially love how the peppers themselves are soft and tender, with a braised, nearly spreadable suppleness.

Canola oil, dried chilis, tomato, onion, garlic, apple cider vinegar, fresh herbs, dried herbs, spice mix, piloncillo, brown sugar, sea salt.

While delicious, this is really an ingredient, not a condiment. Use as you would canned chipotles in adobo. Tip: the sauce is as useful as the chiles themselves. Don’t throw it out! You can also substitute it in for powdered chipotle in soups and stews, just be sure to give these peppers a finer chop first. Try them in our: Grilled Tacos el Pastor, Chipotle Cashew Cauliflower Steaks, and Albondigas Enchipotladas (Meatballs in Chipotle Sauce)
