About Enchalada sauce

Enchilada sauce is a rich, flavorful condiment originating from Mexican cuisine, renowned for its key role in enchilada dishes. Made primarily with a base of tomatoes or chili peppers, it often includes spices like cumin, garlic, and oregano, creating a bold and zesty profile. Traditional recipes may also use broth, onion, and a dash of oil for depth. Nutritionally, enchilada sauce is low in calories and provides vitamins A and C from the peppers and tomatoes. However, some varieties can be high in sodium and saturated fat due to added salt or oils. Opting for homemade or low-sodium versions can make it a more heart-healthy choice. Whether mild or spicy, enchilada sauce enhances a range of dishes, adding a distinctive taste that reflects the vibrant essence of Mexican culinary traditions.
