The Southwestern region style of cooking typically refers to southern California, New Mexico and Texas. And unlike many other regional foods this is a melting pot of cultures in the creation of these recipes. The driving influence is its entirely Spanish and Native American history. And at the heart of this seasoning is the chile.
The base ingredients used in Southwestern cuisine are beans (especially black beans), cilantro, avocados, hominy limes, rice, pine nuts, pork and corn and flour tortillas. New Mexico may be best known for it’s Green Chiles and practically no Southwestern dish can be without.
Our Southwest season is perfect to use when you want the flavor of the region but do not have the time to create each dish completely from scratch. Hand blended from New Mexico chiles, Ancho chiles, California paprika, coriander, garlic, cumin, cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, black pepper and Mexican oregano.
Use this seasoning in regional dishes like burritos, flautas, tacos, tamales and tostadas.
We carry Dried New Mexico Chiles and chile powder as well as a full line of dried chiles and hot peppers. You might also be interested in our best selling Manzanillo Mexican Seasoning , Fajita Seasoning and Hill Country Chili Powder.
