Shatta Up! - and Try the Hot Sauce!

|
Companies large and small are getting their variations into the mouths (an onto the taste buds) of hot sauce aficionados eager for the next great flavor profile and gastronomic punch of heat. Global offerings continue to attract interest and build loyalty, giving kitchen table travelers a way to experience different cultures through hot sauce.
"With such a diverse culture in the US and how easy it’s become to access global ingredients, our pantries have changed dramatically. Sriracha sauce has become as mainstream as ketchup in some parts of the country, with Korean gochujang following closely behind. It’s common to see a splash of XO sauce or a dusting of furikake. Japanese matcha is being used more in green sauces, and the availability of chiles from Latin America to Asia continues to grow."
— Christopher Tanner, executive director of operations, American Culinary Federation
Well… Heat-seekers, Hot-heads, and Pepperistas – Rejoice! |

It’s how the Mediterranean does hot sauce! Made with only three clean ingredients blended in perfect proportion: peppers, vinegar, and salt. It is Non-GMO & Kosher.
The peppers in Wildfare’s ancestral recipe are grown from heirloom seeds which were first planted by a farming family seven centuries ago. As the family grew and migrated around the Mediterranean basin, they brought the pepper seeds with them – sewn into the pockets and hems of their clothing. They planted the seeds with as much care as they transported them, and they are still grown to this day – a key heritage ingredient to Authentic Shatta Hot Sauce. The naturally brilliant red color is a visual cue to the intensity, vibrancy, and depth of the flavor. Shatta can be used to enhance soups, stews and sauces and work wonders in marinades or even spicy mixed drinks. Try a little on spicy braised short ribs, grilled vegetable skewers, grilled and saucy tempeh, chickpea and tofu curry, or Asian noodle salad. It’s great on almost every game day food you can think of too: chili, ribs, wings, nachos, cheeseburgers…the list goes on and on. |

| It’s a physiological truth – and darn tasty! Capsaicin, an active component of chili peppers, produces serotonin - which brightens our moods (and actually makes us better equipped to deal with anxiety and stress). Additionally, endorphins are produced which act as a natural pain reliever. Not to mention, dopamine is released, eliciting pleasure. Finally, spicy foods have been shown to benefit the digestive tract, promote heart health, relieve joint pain, and improve metabolism. Okay – enough science… |
