Tangy, aromatic classic Southwest Taco Simmer Sauce with zippy chili flavor is even better with rich notes of cocoa, smoked paprika and the pleasantly warm heat of ancho pepper. A bold and smoky red sauce for simmering cheese, beef or chicken enchiladas. The Spanish word enchilar, meaning ‘to add chili,’ is the base of the word enchilada. While a dish similar to enchiladas was mentioned in the 1500s by Bernal Díaz del Castillo, a Spanish conquistador, meals similar to this were likely part of Mayan culture far longer — fish wrapped in corn tortillas, among other varieties. This famous dish has evolved to include mole and enchiladas rojas or verdes.
