About Piri piri

Piri Piri, also known as Peri-Peri, is a spicy chili sauce originating from Portuguese and African cuisine. It gets its signature kick from the African bird’s eye chili, combined with ingredients like garlic, lemon, vinegar, paprika, and olive oil. Rich in flavor, Piri Piri is commonly used as a marinade, dip, or seasoning for meats, seafood, and vegetables. Its fiery chilies provide capsaicin, which may have metabolism-boosting and anti-inflammatory benefits. Garlic and lemon add antioxidants and vitamin C, while olive oil offers healthy fats that support heart health. However, the sauce can be high in sodium, depending on the recipe, so moderation is advised for those watching their salt intake. Piri Piri is a vibrant way to add spice and nutritional perks to dishes, making it a popular choice in grills and barbecues worldwide.
