Mexican Cuisine Variety Pack (12 oz Total) Ancho Chiles, Guajillo Chiles, and Mexican Oregano- The Mexican Cuisine.

• Guajillo chilies are sometimes used to make a salsa for tamales; the dried fruits (chilies) are seeded, soaked, or simmered, then pulverized or mashed/pureed into a paste, then cooked with several other ingredients to produce a flavorful sauce.

• Mexican Oregano, Lippia graveolens, is a relative newcomer to US palates. This Mexican herb is strong and pungent and, like its Greek counterpart, delivers bitter and peppery flavors. Because of this fundamental resemblance, it was given the Spanish name “oregano” even though it was used long before the Spanish came to Mexico. Mexican Oregano is verdant and grassy, with an anise-like taste topped by lively citrus and lime.
