About Chile rojo
Chile Rojo, or "red chili sauce," is a flavorful staple in Mexican cuisine, known for its bold, smoky taste and vibrant hue. Made primarily from dried red chiles such as guajillo, ancho, or pasilla, it’s blended with garlic, onion, spices, and typically a touch of oil or lard for richness. This versatile sauce is often used to enhance dishes like enchiladas, tamales, or stews. Its nutritional profile includes essential vitamins like A and C, as well as antioxidants from the chiles, which may support immune health and reduce inflammation. However, it can be high in sodium or fat, depending on the recipe and preparation. For a healthier version, opt for minimal added fats and salt. Chile Rojo provides a delicious way to add depth and spice to meals, while offering some beneficial nutrients when enjoyed in moderation.
