Piri-Piri Lemon Hot Sauce

This herby sauce from Portugal shows us that the chili is not inevitably fiery hot.

It is spicy and has an intensive aroma and it is situated on the inferior side of the Fire-o-meter scale this is very good as it is. Together with the distinct fruity lemony note (16% lemon content) it is perfect for fish, shrimps and other seafood. It is also perfect for seasoning soups without making them hot.

The Quitango Molho Picante is also perfect for pork meat and vegetarian dishes. Onion, salt and garlic round the aroma of the sauce. Thanks to the high lemon content the vinegar content is lower which leads to this sauce having no vinegar taste. It can be savored by the whole family thanks to the mild heat. It is also economical so try it! Tip: do you want to make a guacamole but you don't have any lemons in the house? Some spritzed Piri-Piri Lemon Hot Sauce helps keep the avocado color and brigs the right amount of aroma. See PW-recipe (german language)
