La Costena’s ‘The Spice is Right Tour’.
June 21, 2010
La Costena has launched The Spice is Right Tour. The tour — an entertaining, educational and recipe tasting experience — will be featured at some of the nation’s most popular family festivals, and is sponsored by La Costena, manufacturer of America’s number one selling jalapeno.
At each tour stop, La Costena’s Spice is Right chefs will demonstrate affordable and easy solutions for satisfying everyone’s individual preference for spice, heat and flavor simply by selecting the right type of pepper, salsa or bean.
“People always ask us which spice is right for them and their family’s individual preferences. For example, they want to know the difference between Jalapeno, Serrano and Chipotle peppers or Taquera and Ranchera salsas, and which option to use in what type of food,” explained Chef Steven Henao. “That’s why the role of the Spice is Right chefs is to educate people on how to achieve the flavorful spice level just right for them and their family. We’ll also show busy consumers how easy it is to spice up the ordinary – how to add the right type of peppers, beans and salsas to spice up favorite, everyday foods.”
The Spice is Right Tour will also feature recipe samplings, games, contests and prizes. Additionally, cooking videos that demonstrate easy meal solutions and a downloadable Spice is Right reference guide that charts the spice levels of different types of peppers, salsas, beans and sauces are featured online at http://www.LaCostenaUSA.com.
