Origin and special features
“ DEEP, SPICEY AND CHOCOLATEY NOTE ”.
The Mexican mole spice blend is a symbol of authentic Mexican cuisine. Originally from Puebla and Oaxaca, it combines chilies, spices, and cacao powder into a sauce of exceptional depth. Mole is considered a festive dish and is traditionally served at Christmas or other special occasions. The combination of ancho, mulatto, and cascabel chilies creates an unparalleled balance of heat, sweetness, and smoke.
Taste and aroma
Smoky, spicy, and slightly sweet with a deep, chocolatey note. Chili and cinnamon add warmth, while cocoa and cloves provide depth. Cumin and oregano give the blend structure, and pepper rounds out the profile. The result is a harmonious fusion of heat, sweetness, and earthy complexity—quintessentially Mexican and unmistakable.
Application
Ideal for enchiladas, chicken, rice, or pork. Also excellent with vegetable or pasta dishes. For classic mole, toast nuts and pumpkin seeds, sauté onions, garlic, and tomatillos, and purée everything with the spice mix. This creates a velvety, aromatic sauce – perfect for festive dishes and culinary experiments.
Health benefits
Chili peppers boost metabolism and have anti-inflammatory properties, while cocoa powder contains valuable flavonoids that support the cardiovascular system. Cumin and cinnamon improve digestion, and oregano provides natural antioxidants. A blend that pampers both body and senses.
