Expert Tips
- Buy Tajin at a Hispanic grocery store for the best price. Tajin is a staple in most Mexican kitchens, which means you can usually find it for a fraction of the cost of what you’d pay online or at specialty grocers like Whole Foods.
- Opt for fresh, in-season fruits whenever possible. If you’re craving some of that sweet-salty-spicy goodness in the depths of winter, consider reaching for frozen options instead. Contrary to what you might think, frozen fruits are picked at peak ripeness, meaning they’ll often taste better and have a better nutritional profile than fresh, out-of-season options.
