Tortilla Chips-Lightly Salted from Blanco Niño

Lightly Salted - The pure perfection of simple enjoyment

Blanco Niño - since 2015, Blanco Niño has been setting new standards in European tortilla production from Ireland. What began as an uncompromising search for the perfect tortilla led to the roots of Mexican culture. Today, Blanco Niño produces tortilla chips that delight both American and Mexican cuisine with their authenticity.

The white gold of the Maya Sometimes less is more - the Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips are the best proof of this. Blanco Niño sources the high-quality salt from the historic Mayan salt fields in Celestún, Yucatan. In cooperation with a social enterprise, they support traditional and sustainable salt production methods there. This special salt gives the chips a subtle spice that perfectly brings out the natural aroma of the corn.

The Art of Simplicity

The key is traditional nixtamalization - a process that dates back to the Aztecs. The corn is soaked in lime solution, which enhances its natural flavor and makes the nutrients more available. Each chip is made from freshly ground corn - an elaborate process that is evident in every bite.

Universal applications

Tortilla chips have long been indispensable in American cuisine. The lightly salted version is the perfect basic chip for:

• Classic Tex-Mex dishes like Nachos Supreme
• As an accompaniment to any kind of salsa and dip
• With traditional guacamole
• On Seven-Layer Dip at Sporting Events
• As a basis for creative fusion cuisine
• With Mediterranean dips such as hummus or baba ganoush
• With American cheese dips
• As a croutons alternative in soups
• When tasting different salsas

Award-winning quality

The simple perfection of Blanco Niño's tortilla chips has been recognized with 7 Great Taste Awards. The judges particularly praised the perfect balance between corn and salt. What was previously reserved for leading Mexican restaurants can now also be enjoyed at home.
