El PintoChipotle Salsa, Medium, 16 Ounce (Pack of 6)

*****

This salsa is great, but Amazon sent HOT instead of MILD. Will have to give it away.

Lived in NM 16 years. After moving to Wyoming I missed the whole NM cuisine. El Pinto is a staple. Can't live with out it!

Compared to any salsa found on shelves here in California, this is easily a 5 star salsa. (Pace, picante - "meh!") El Pinto is so much more flavorful and "good spicy" than anything you can buy at a typical supermarket. But I have some salsa experience after living in ABQ for 10 years so I know el pinto isn't the best. Im not going to mention my favorite here because honestly it's better in the restaurant than in a jar anyway. This medium spice level is not too spicy for my family (I prefer it much spicier though but settled for the good of the team - lol) and the flavor is not sugary like the store bought junk.... PS El Pinto is an upscale restaurant in downtown ABQ and is a "must visit" while in ABQ. Also visit Sadie's!

...but my husband dislikes it. I was hoping for a nice NM flavor without the Sadie's style heat (which is painful). I really like this, but not everyone in the family does.

Best salsa ever and I don't like canned salsa! Cheap as well.

I lived in Albuquerque for 19 years. I miss El Pinto so this is the next best thing to eating there.

This salsa is excellent. I am very happy with this purchase. Reminds me of home.
