We are thrilled to now stock the delicious and ubiquitous Mexican chile de arbol. It’s most well known use is in this fiery salsa, but can be used as any of the dried Mexican chillies are by adding to soups and stews. Having this salsa to hand will transform any taco night.. guaranteed! Don’t forget our guacamole mix to complete the party.
