As you can imagine, they are as odd as they sound. These crayon-shaped edible sticks are like solid condiments, brightly colored and packed with flavor.
Each one is made with all-natural ingredients, including agar (a vegan sub for gelatin), which is used as a gelling agent to help bind the ingredients into the crayon shape. It also gives the crayons a satisfyingly soft texture, whilst apple cider vinegar adds a slightly acidic bite.
Using a special sharpener, which is integrated into the design of each vial encasing the crayon, these flavour-packed art tools are easily shaved into dishes. They can be used to add a touch of brightness without needing to grate and grind, or even prepare sauces, compotes, and vinaigrettes.
Pairings
Chili Con Carne: Add a few shavings or more of chipotle to your chili con carne for a smoky and spicy flavor. Start with a small amount and adjust to your taste preferences.
Bloody Mary: If you enjoy a spicy Bloody Mary cocktail, you can add a shaving of chipotle crayon to the mix. It will add depth and smokiness to the drink.
Burritos: Sprinkle a little chipotle food crayon into your burrito filling for an extra layer of flavor. It works well with meats, beans, and vegetables.
Meats: Use chipotle for meats such as chicken, pork, or beef after grilling or roasting. It will create a flavorful crust and add smokiness to the meat.
