Blanco Nino Smoky Chipotle Tortilla Chips (170 g), €3.00
Smoky Chipotle
San Miguel de Allende, just north of Mexico City, is a town bursting with vibrant culture. Its buildings, ruby red and mustard yellow in colour, its streets paved with cobblestones, abuzz with the chitter chatter of vendors and their patrons. It's here to this beautiful cityscape that our mind travels whenever we reminisce of one of our favourite chilli, the Chipotle. When fresh from the field it carries the name, Jalapeño, but when smoked and dried, it becomes a Chipotle; the key ingredient in the famous adobo sauce. Smoky and a little sweet, with a friendly kick of heat, this sauce is the inspiration for these chips and emblematic of wonderful San Miguel.
