About Adobo sauce

Adobo sauce is a rich, flavorful blend often associated with Mexican and Filipino cuisines. Made from dried chili peppers, garlic, vinegar, oregano, and spices, this deep red sauce is used both as a marinade and a condiment to enhance dishes with its smoky, tangy, and slightly sweet profile. In Mexican cooking, it's commonly paired with meats, beans, or vegetables, while in Filipino cuisine, it accompanies the iconic Adobo dish. Adobo sauce is low in calories and fat, but its sodium content can be high due to added salt and vinegar. It contains capsaicin from chili peppers, which may support metabolism and promote heart health. However, moderation is key, as excessive sodium can impact blood pressure. When made fresh, the lack of added preservatives makes it a wholesome option for adding bold flavor to meals.
