Chiltomate | Traditional Salsa From Yucatán, Mexico | TasteAtlas

Chiltomate

Chiltomate is a rich Yucatecan salsa consisting of tomatoes, habanero chili peppers, coriander, and onions. Tomatoes, habaneros, and onions should be roasted before being blended with coriander and salt. Once prepared, chiltomate should have a thick consistency with some chunks remaining in the salsa, while the flavor should be spicy, sweet, and slightly smoky.


It is recommended to serve it with papadzules, enchiladas, or huevos motulenos.
