Ortega Guacamole Seasoning Mix, 1 Oz, Pack of 12

The Ortega tradition, spanning 150 years, all began with Maria Conception Jacinta Dominguez Ortega, affectionately known as Mama Ortega. Mama's exceptional cooking did more than just bring her family together; it was in her very kitchen that her 11th child, Emilio, established the Ortega Chile Packing Company.

Emilio's fascination with chiles commenced when he relocated to New Mexico in 1890. There, he encountered the state's popular big red chiles. Upon his return to California a few years later, he brought with him chile pepper seeds and numerous recipes for dishes he had grown to love during his time in New Mexico. Back home with his family at their adobe house in Ventura, California, Emilio planted the chile seeds, which thrived in the temperate climate of Ventura. Soon, Emilio had an abundance of chiles, prompting him to share them with others. To his delight, everyone adored them, and he knew he had something truly special.

In 2003, B&G Foods acquired the Ortega brand, continuing the family's long-standing commitment to quality. Today, when a family purchases a can of chiles or a box of taco shells, they can rest assured they are obtaining the very best.
