Description
Dona Maria Pipian 235g brings the comforting depth of a classic Mexican gravy straight to your kitchen. With its roots in pre-Hispanic tradition, this rich sauce uses ground pumpkin seeds to create a naturally thick, nutty base. Whether green, red, or white depending on the region, pipian is beloved across Mexico for its versatility and deep, earthy flavour.
Traditionally paired with beef or seafood, this sauce also makes a superb marinade — just as satisfying as a slow-cooked mole, but quick and easy to prepare. The blend of chillies, spices, and seeds delivers a unique taste that’s both bold and balanced, perfect for everyday meals or special dishes.
To prepare, heat gently in a pan for 5 minutes, stirring constantly until smooth. Slowly add 4.5 cups of water (or chicken stock for extra richness), blending until fully incorporated. Simmer until you reach your ideal consistency.
Store in a cool, dry place. Once opened, refrigerate and enjoy within 5 days. A true taste of tradition, ready in minutes.
