What is Mash ?

This is a high concentrated product made from the flesh and skins of some of the worlds hottest chillies.

Pepper mash is the foundation of some of the worlds most popular hot sauce products. 

These peppers are harvested at the peak of ripeness then ground, blended with salt and natural citric acid and then packaged insuring that you receive the freshest flavour possible. 

This pepper mash is of the very highest quality and can be used in any of you culinary or sauce making adventures.

Why Fermented ?

Common in the USA and Asia, but hard to find within the EU, we crush the fresh chilli's (usually 85 - 90% of the end product) Together with salt and leave this to ferment for 2 to 6 months, or even longer. The flavour from the skins and flesh comes together to provide an intense and rich flavour when cooked.

Remember to wash hands immediately after use .
