About Mexican sauce
Mexican sauce, often referred to as "salsa," is a flavorful condiment rooted in traditional Mexican cuisine. Its ingredients typically include tomatoes, chili peppers, onions, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and sometimes additional spices or fruits. Variations like salsa roja, salsa verde, and pico de gallo cater to different tastes and dishes. This versatile sauce can be raw or cooked, offering a balance of tangy, spicy, and savory flavors. Packed with fresh vegetables and herbs, it provides a good source of vitamins A, C, and antioxidants, contributing to heart health and immune support. Low in calories and fat, it’s a wholesome addition to meals when made fresh. However, some packaged versions may contain added sugars and excessive sodium, so checking labels is important. Mexican sauce enhances tacos, grilled meats, and snacks, making it an essential and nutrient-rich element of the cuisine.
