Simply Organic Red Enchilada Simmer Sauce 8.00 fl. oz.

Tangy, aromatic classic Red Enchilada Simmer Sauce with zippy chili flavor, made even better with rich notes of cocoa, smoked paprika and the pleasantly warm heat of ancho pepper. A bold and smoky red sauce for simmering cheese, beef or chicken enchiladas.

The Spanish word enchilar, meaning “to add chili,” is the base of the word enchilada. While a dish similar to enchiladas was mentioned in the 1500s by Bernal Diaz del Castillo, a Spanish conquistador, meals similar to this were likely part of Mayan culture far longer — fish wrapped in corn tortillas, among other varieties. This famous dish has evolved to include mole and enchiladas rojas or verdes.

Any night is the perfect night for the ancho chili heat and gooey cheese of red enchiladas.
