When you decide to treat yourself to delicious Mexican food, one of the best parts of your meal will be the condiments that are used to enhance the dish. There are several Mexican condiments that are a great addition to any Mexican dish. They are different than the condiments that you would find in an American fast food restaurant. Eddie’s Mexican Restaurant is here to talk about a bit about some of the most common Mexican food condiments and what dishes they are used to enhance.

Condiments You’ll Find in a Mexican Restaurant

When it comes to Mexican food, the condiments used to enhance different flavors in the dishes served will look a lot different than ketchup. They are packed full of flavor to bring out different flavors and spices in the dishes.
– Pico de Gallo: A mixture of tomatoes, cilantro, onions, peppers and sprinkled with lime, this delicious condiment is the perfect pairing with tacos, tortilla chips, burritos, tostadas and more. It is chunky and doesn’t have as much liquid as other salsas which gives a delicious flavor as well as texture to your meal.
– Salsa Verde: This green salsa is made from tomatillos and will add a tangy, yet delicious flavor to your food. It is often used on top of enchiladas, tacos, burritos and other yummy dishes. Some people even like to put it on top of eggs or refried beans. It’s a great way to pick some punch into each bite.
– Salsa Roja: One of the most well known condiments used in Mexican food has to be salsa roja. It is your traditional red salsa that is perfect for dipping chips in while you wait for your main course to arrive. Some salsa roja is spicy depending on the chiles that are used in making it. Some people love salsa roja so much that they will determine how good a Mexican restaurant is off this salsa in combination with the chips that are served as an appetizer.
– Guacamole: Another classic condiment is guacamole. This is another dip that many people order as an appetizer to their main course to enjoy with some fresh tortilla chips. However, it is also used to go atop your fajitas, burritos, tacos, and any other Mexican dish that you’re enjoying. The fresh avocados that are mashed up and mixed with cilantro, lime, salt, onion and even tomato make up the guacamole we all love so much.
– Sour Cream: If you aren’t a fan of the spiciness of many Mexican dishes, sour cream is often used to tone things down. It is a creamy addition to many Mexican dishes.
