Salt-and-Pepper
New Chile Salt from Los Chileros
It’s on every table and in every kitchen. Throughout history, wars have been fought over it; soldiers have been paid with it; and kings have hoarded it. It may be our most common seasoning but there’s nothing common about it.
It is salt.
If you need further convincing that salt is a lot more interesting than the table salt you grew up with then simply look to Los Chileros. Los Chileros’ new Chile Salt shows just how versatile salt can be.
The first thing you’ll notice about Los Chileros Chile Salt is how different it looks. That’s because we use rough hewn French sea salt crystals (prized for their purity and clean taste) to make our Chile Salt. They’re perfect for grinding in a salt mill or simply tossing as is into soups or stews.
The golden orange colour comes from our chiles – specially selected to give just the right amount of heat. We also add in bell pepper for a hint of sweetness and to balance the heat of the chiles.
The result is the perfect marriage of saltiness & spiciness – it has heat but it’s not overpowering.
How to use Los Chileros Chile Salt? Of course, it’s a natural with any Southwestern or Mexican dish such as Chiles Rellenos, Enchiladas or Green Chile Stew. But it’s also a ideal anytime you want to add a bit of spice to a dish including eggs (great on scrambled eggs or sprinkled over hollandaise sauce), on
grilled meats or fish, and with butter to create a delicious spicy butter for mashed potatoes or other vegetables. The possibilities are endless and suddenly salt doesn’t seem so ordinary anymore.
For the ultimate salt & pepper on your table, pair Los Chileros Chile Salt with one of our Pepper Shakers. Choose from either Chipotle or Ancho pepper in a handy glass shaker jar.
Los Chileros Chile Salt is available in 2 ounce bags and sold in fine food retailers across the U.S.
