About Chili sambal

Chili Sambal is a versatile, bold condiment originating from Indonesian and Southeast Asian cuisine. Made primarily from fresh or dried chilies, it often includes garlic, shallots, lime juice, vinegar, and salt, creating a flavorful blend of heat and tang. Some versions may contain sugar or fermented shrimp paste, adding complexity to the taste. Packed with capsaicin, the active component in chilies, it may boost metabolism and support heart health when consumed in moderation. However, high sodium or added sugar in certain recipes can pose concerns if eaten excessively. Chili Sambal is typically low in calories, making it a great option for adding spice to dishes without significantly impacting calorie intake. Its bold, zesty flavor enhances meats, seafood, rice, or noodles, offering a taste of authentic Southeast Asian cuisine. Always check ingredient labels to ensure a healthier version of this popular condiment.
