FAQS
What exactly is Salsa Macha?
Salsa Macha is a traditional Mexican condiment, completely different from tomato-based salsas. It is a rich, complex, and crunchy blend of premium dried chilies, roasted nuts, and seeds, all slowly macerated in oil. At La Brava, we exclusively use 100% avocado oil to extract the deepest smoky flavors.
How spicy is La Brava?
We offer different heat levels to suit every palate. Our Original has a balanced, deeply smoky heat that enhances food without overpowering it. For those seeking an intense kick, our Extra Spicy delivers, while our Mild offers all the satisfying crunch and flavor with a very gentle warmth.
How do I use Salsa Macha?
The beauty of La Brava is its versatility—it turns simple dishes into extraordinary meals in 10 seconds. Drizzle it over eggs, avocado toast, grilled salmon, pizza, tacos, or use it as a marinade for steaks.
Does it need to be refrigerated after opening?
No refrigeration is required. Because it is oil-based and contains no water or fresh tomatoes, it is shelf-stable. Simply store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and always use a clean spoon to keep the ingredients fresh.
Is La Brava Salsa Macha healthy?
Yes. Unlike many commercial sauces that use cheap seed oils (like canola or vegetable oil), La Brava is crafted exclusively with 100% premium avocado oil. It contains organic ingredients and absolutely no artificial preservatives.
Does your salsa fit into my specific diet (Keto, Gluten-Free)?
Absolutely. La Brava is naturally Gluten-Free, Keto-friendly, and Paleo-friendly. It is a clean, guilt-free indulgence made with recognizable, high-quality ingredients.
Are there allergens in La Brava?
Yes. Our traditional recipe includes a blend of nuts and seeds (which are crucial for that signature crunch). Please check the specific product label for the exact nut and seed breakdown if you have severe allergies.
Where is La Brava made?
Our roots are deeply Mexican, but every jar of La Brava is proudly handcrafted in small batches in Lewisville, Texas, ensuring uncompromising quality and consistency.
Do you offer wholesale pricing for restaurants or retail stores?
