Frequently asked questions

How to use this avocado hot sauce?

You can literally use this spicy sauce with any Mexican dish, as a dip or as a side dish. Additionally, you may also use it as a topping layer in taco, sandwich or burger. 

Is this creamy jalapeno sauce spicy?


This sauce is mildly spiced as we have removed the core and the seeds of jalapeno while making the sauce.

How to increase the heat?


Since we have removed the entire white membrane and the seeds, this avocado sauce is low in heat. However, if you prefer the sauce with flaming hot, add the jalapeño as a whole(along with the seeds and the pith).

How to minimize the heat?

We made this sauce only with the flesh of the jalapeño. Hence, it will be mildly hot. If you still prefer bringing down the heat further, swap half of the jalapeños quantity with the green pepper. 
This way the peppery flavor is retained with the minimal heat in jalapeno avocado sauce. And you may also adjust the combination of the jalapeño and the green pepper to suit your heat tolerance.

This jalapeno avocado sauce is a fabulous sauce that goes perfect topping as a topping for taco or sandwich. Also great to enjoy as dipping.
