different and special


The chipotle pepper is widely used in the Mexican cuisine and it can be found in many preparations. This chili is so much used that it has even found the way to be part of a vinaigrette .

In this preparation we have the delicious combination of oil and vinegar – to which other ingredients are added to give a spiced and fresh touch to the vinaigrette. But when the chipotle pepper is added... the vinaigrette acquires another dimension because
spicy, smoky and even sweet notes can be found . Flavors that are normally not found in vinaigrettes. Be prepared because you are going to taste the vinaigrette like you had never tasted it before!
