Andele’s Chipotle Salsa is a fluid blend of smoky-flavored Chipotle peppers and a favorite on the Andele Restaurant Salsa Bar. Chipotle comes from the Nahuatl word chilpoctli, which means “smoked chile.” It is a smoke-dried jalapeno used primarily in Mexican cooking. Chipotle works as a salsa, but its versatility allows it to work superbly as a marinade or rub for meats.
