FAQs About Chipotle Dressing

Can I store it?
Yes! Keep it in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week. It actually gets más rico as the flavors settle.

Is this the same as chipotle mayo?
Not quite. This one has a tangy twist with vinegar and soy sauce, making it more of a chipotle vinaigrette and dressing hybrid.

What can I use instead of chipotle peppers in adobo?
Honestly, nothing beats them. But in a pinch, try smoked paprika and a dash of hot sauce.

Try it on your next taco night or salad and let me know how it goes. ¡Te prometo que te va a encantar!
