Habanero & Chiltepin

El Yucateco

Two chillies walk into a bottle. One brings the familiar habanero warmth. The other is the little wild card. El Yucateco combines habanero with chiltepin for a bright, zesty sauce with a manageable heat. It’s got enough kick to make itself known, but it won’t completely hijack your dinner. This is the sort of sauce I would keep within easy reach. Try it with seafood, tacos, grilled meats, eggs or pizza. A few drops in soup can also add a lively chilli lift, while a dash in a michelada could make breakfast considerably more interesting.
