Mexican Appetizer Recipes – Chipotle Bean Tostada

Jalapenos are extensively found in Mexico and U.S.
A chipotle is a smoke-dried jalapeno chilli used primarily in Tex-Mex Cuisine.
The red variety is placed in the ground using the disc harrow. They are kept on the vine as long as possible. When the jalapenos are deep red and have lost most of their moisture, they are selected for making chipotles. Try unusual flavours to spice your TORTILLA Razzpotle Roasted Raspberry Chipotle Sauce
