Chile Pepita Crunch
$12.00
San Antonio’s Hotel Emma—named for Emma Koehler, an famous Pearl district figure who kept her late husband’s brewery running during Prohibition—has an online gift store full of goods for those who can’t visit right now. Among the products are several tasty treats by the hotel’s culinary director (chef John Brand) and his team. Our favorite is the Chile Pepita Crunch, a nutty, earthy, slightly spicy and crunchy relish-style condiment that can be added to salads, roasted vegetables, grilled fare and more. The blend is made up of pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, hemp hearts, roast garlic, sunflower oil and morita chile and adds a little kick to your chosen dish.
