Trader Joe's New Guajillo Salsa Has a Fruity and Smoky Flavor Profile

Trader Joe's new Guajillo Salsa features a unique flavor profile that pairs well with a wide variety of dishes.

Though Trader Joe's already has a number of salsas to choose from, its new Guajillo Salsa is unlike the rest. The flavorful condiment is made from Mexico's guajillo, which are known for their slightly fruity flavor profile and their impressive level of heat. As Trader Joe's notes, "they tend to run 2,500-5,000 Scovilles, akin to a jalapeño." To round out the heat of the peppers, Trader Joe's Guajillo Salsa includes juicy tomatoes, red chili flakes, garlic, and chipotle pepper powder. This unique blend gives the salsa, a soft, smoky edge.

A versatile salsa for a wide variety of dishes, Trader Joe's recommends pairing the salsa with everything from tortilla chips and burritos, to chilis and soups.
