FAQ's

What is Verde made from?
Fresh green jalapeños, kiwifruit, coriander and lime — a bright, garden-fresh green salsa rather than a fermented one.

What do you use green chilli salsa on?
Tacos, burritos and nachos; grilled chicken and seafood; and eggs, salads and roasted veg.

Is it vegan?
No — it contains a touch of NZ honey, so it's vegetarian but not vegan.
