Tapatio Salsa Picante is an authentic Mexican hot sauce that will pep up just about any dish! Here at The Spice Cupboard, we love exploring all kinds of flavour combinations in sauce form, but we are often asked for a good, general purpose sauce that you can use with everything. We’d say this fits the bill well! With just a handful of ingredients, Tapatio brings a great flavour to a huge number of foods. The peppers and garlic are the main flavours and the vinegary tang adds a slightly sour, mouth watering edge. A great sauce that’s popular in much of the Americas and Europe.
Tapatio Salsa Picante is a perfect partner for all of your Mexican favourites! Try it with tacos, burritos, quesadillas and much more. It goes so well with eggs too, adding a delicious taste and not a small kick of spicy heat. Whether you want to try it with your food or as an ingredient for cooking, this will instantly add excitement and interest to your meal. We’d put this around a 4/10 for heat (which is subjective!), so make sure everyone enjoys the heat before splashing it all over everything!. Other great Mexican sauces we have include La LLorona, El Yucateco Habanero & Ghost, Habanero & Chiltepin & La Adelita.
The heat from chillies is a subjective thing we find; what some may find too hot, others might find tame. Therefore, you should go easy on chillies, chilli powders and sauces with chilli in them to find the heat level you like. Best not pour it all over your food before testing the heat!
