Description

Valentina Red 370ml is the undisputed king of Mexican hot sauces. Known as Salsa Picante, this is the most popular and best-selling chilli sauce in Mexico, a staple found on every restaurant table and in every home. Its unique flavor profile is what sets it apart. It’s tangy and slightly citrusy, with a pleasant, mild heat (rated at 900 Scoville units) that builds gradually without ever becoming overpowering. Unlike thinner, more vinegar-forward sauces like Tabasco, Valentina boasts a notably thicker consistency that clings perfectly to chips, fries, and tacos. The secret lies in the use of puya chillies from Jalisco, which impart a subtle sweetness with notes of cherry and anise, creating a depth of flavour that is both fruity and earthy. Made with a simple blend of chili peppers, vinegar, salt, and spices, it contains zero calories, fat, and carbs, making it a guilt-free way to add a flavour punch to your meals. The iconic glass bottle features a permanent flip-top cap and a map of the state of Jalisco.

Perfect for everything from breakfast to dinner: do use it on chips, popcorn, elotes (Mexican street corn), and chicharrones, or use it as a tangy topping for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and chilaquiles. It’s a classic addition to pizza, burgers, and hot dogs, and a must-have for snacks like fresh mango, watermelon, cucumber, and jicama with lime and salt. Elevate your scrambled eggs, soups, seafood cocktails, and micheladas with a few generous shakes.
