About La Mejicana
Discover the story behind our authentic Mexican mole and our commitment to bringing traditional flavors to your table.
Our Story
La Mejicana's mole recipe is a celebration of Mexico's diverse culinary heritage, drawing inspiration from multiple regions across the country. Our unique blend combines traditional techniques and ingredients from Michoacan, Estado de Mexico, and Jalisco - three states renowned for their distinctive mole variations.
Each region contributes its own character to our recipe: the earthy depth from Michoacan, the balanced complexity from Estado de Mexico, and the aromatic spice profile from Jalisco. This multi-regional approach creates a mole that represents the rich tapestry of Mexican cuisine.
What began as a collection of family recipes passed down through generations has evolved into a premium product enjoyed by food lovers across the United States. We remain committed to authentic preparation methods and high-quality ingredients that honor these regional traditions.
Every jar of La Mejicana Mole contains the essence of Mexico's culinary diversity, carefully crafted to bring authentic flavors from multiple Mexican states to your home.
Our Traditional Manufacturing Process
At La Mejicana, we take pride in our authentic, time-honored production methods that preserve the true essence of Mexican mole.
Natural Ingredients, Traditional Methods
Our manufacturing process begins with the careful selection of ingredients. We source only the highest quality chiles, nuts, seeds, chocolate, and spices - all 100% natural with no artificial additives, preservatives, or flavor enhancers.
Unlike mass-produced mole pastes that often contain artificial ingredients to extend shelf life and reduce costs, we stay true to traditional methods. Our chiles are hand-selected, carefully dried, and roasted to perfection to develop their complex flavors.
We toast our seeds and nuts in small batches to ensure optimal flavor development, and our chocolate is pure, without the additives found in commercial varieties. This commitment to natural ingredients makes our mole not only more authentic but significantly healthier.
Our Health Commitment
- No artificial preservatives
- No artificial colors or flavors
- No MSG or flavor enhancers
- No hydrogenated oils
- Lower sodium than commercial alternatives
Small Batch Production
We produce our mole in small batches to ensure quality control and consistency. This allows us to monitor each step of the process and maintain the authentic flavors that make our mole special.
Slow Cooking Process
Our mole is slowly simmered to allow the flavors to develop fully and meld together. This traditional slow-cooking method is essential to creating the depth and complexity that defines authentic mole.
Artisanal Grinding
We use traditional stone grinding techniques to achieve the perfect texture. This method preserves the essential oils and flavors of the ingredients, resulting in a more aromatic and flavorful mole.
