Description
Peanut-butter’s savory sibling, Salprieta, is ready to elevate your chocolate pairing expectations. Coriander, chilis, and heirloom corn take this humble nut to new heights.
Salprieta is an ancestral superfood made with native varieties of corn and peanuts, which are ground into a powder and seasoned with achiote, coriander seeds, and salt. It’s used to add color, nutrition, and aroma to any dish—including fruit, soups, salads, and sauces. As a flavor popular on the Pacific coast of Ecuador, this chocolate is an invitation to travel to the gastronomic landscape of To’ak.
