About Clemente Jacques
Clemente Jacques has been a cornerstone of Mexican gastronomy since 1924, renowned for its high-quality chillies that capture the essence of traditional flavours. Their Chipotle in Adobo features whole smoked red jalapeños steeped in a savoury blend of tomatoes, vinegar, garlic, and spices, offering a deep smoky heat that's milder than fresh chillies but intensely aromatic.

This versatile ingredient shines in countless Mexican recipes. Blend it into adobo marinade for succulent grilled chicken or pork, or chop it finely for tacos al pastor, enchiladas, or chilaquiles. It's brilliant in salsas, moles, and even bean dishes like frijoles charros. Beyond classics, try stirring it into mayonnaise for a spicy chipotle aioli perfect for burgers or fish tacos, or mix with cream cheese for stuffed jalapeño poppers.

Sourced from trusted growers and produced to exacting standards, Clemente Jacques ensures consistent quality without artificial additives. The large 2.8KG size is ideal for bulk buyers, restaurants, or anyone stocking up on pantry staples. Store unopened tins in a cool, dry place; once opened, refrigerate and use within weeks for peak freshness. Whether you're hosting a Mexican feast or experimenting with fusion cuisine, this chipotle delivers bold, authentic punch that transforms everyday meals.
