About Piri-piri sauce

Piri-Piri sauce is a vibrant, spicy condiment that originated in Portugal and gained prominence through African and Portuguese cuisine. It is traditionally made using African bird's eye chili peppers, blended with ingredients like garlic, lemon juice, vinegar, olive oil, and aromatic spices. This sauce delivers a bold, tangy heat that complements grilled meats, seafood, or vegetables. Nutritionally, Piri-Piri sauce is low in calories and contains capsaicin from the chili peppers, which may boost metabolism and promote antioxidant activity. Its olive oil base offers healthy fats in moderation. However, store-bought versions can sometimes contain added sugars or high sodium levels, so it's important to read labels or prepare it fresh at home. Piri-Piri sauce brings a dynamic flavor profile that adds a fiery kick to your dishes without overwhelming portions of your diet.
