Salty Xoconostle Strips

Salted, naturally sour dried prickly pear strips. If you love umeboshi, you've got to try these sour treats! Enjoy as a puckery snack or to replace salt and lime at cocktail time. Pairs great with tequila!

Xoconostle is a close cousin to the common (sweet) prickly pear. Its fruit looks similar, but the taste is much more sour. You'll find xoconostle in salsas and dishes throughout central Mexico.
