Behind every recipe

The idea

Most food brands invent a chef. We started with one.

Chef Muñoz isn't a concept that needed recipes. It's a set of recipes that outgrew a restaurant. Every product we release has already been cooked thousands of times, served to paying customers, and adjusted until it was right.

Proven before it's packaged

Nothing goes in a jar that isn't already on the menu. The salsas launching this fall are the ones customers asked to buy by name, often enough that we counted.

A pantry, not a product

Salsas, consommés, soups, marinades, and eventually full meal kits. The same kitchen, category by category, in the order we can do each one properly.

You can go taste it first

The restaurant is open every day until midnight. If you want to know whether this is worth buying, eat there and decide before we've sold you anything.

First out of the kitchen

Salsa roja and salsa verde

Two recipes, two completely different approaches to heat. The roja is chile de árbol and costeño grilled low until properly charred, with garlic and onion cooked down beside them for twenty minutes. The verde takes green jalapeño in raw so the heat stays sharp, then rounds it out with avocado, cilantro and hand-squeezed lime.
