What is picante sauce?

Picante sauce is a type of spicy salsa that is popular in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine. It is typically made with a combination of diced tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, and spices such as cumin and garlic.

Picante sauce is known for its bold and spicy flavor, which can range from mild to extra hot depending on the amount of chili peppers used. It is often used as a condiment for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and other Mexican dishes, as well as a dip for tortilla chips.

Commercially prepared picante sauces are widely available in supermarkets, with popular brands including Pace, Tostitos, and Old El Paso. However, many people prefer to make their own picante sauce at home using fresh ingredients for a more authentic and customizable flavor.
