Description
Sambal Oelek Chili Paste - 370 g
Sambal Oelek is a traditional Indonesian spice paste, originating from Southeast Asian cuisine and widely adopted worldwide as an indispensable flavour component. The paste is made from crushed red chili peppers, which are the dominant ingredient, making up about 78-86%, combined with salt and acidic additives. The consistency is coarse and rustic, as the chili peppers are crushed rather than pureed completely smooth, which gives a characteristic texture with visible bits of chili. The flavour is intense, sharp, and spicy, with a clear acidity from the vinegar balancing the heat from the chili peppers. The paste is widely used in Asian cuisine as a flavouring in stews, stir-fries, noodle dishes, soups, and rice dishes, but also works well as a dipping sauce or table condiment. It can be added directly during cooking to give the dish depth and intensity, or served separately as an accompaniment. Sambal Oelek is also excellent in marinades and dressings, where it contributes both heat and complexity. The product is delivered in a convenient 370g glass, easy to store and dispense. Store in a dry place. The paste appeals to anyone looking to add authentic Asian spice to everyday dishes and is particularly popular among food enthusiasts working with Indonesian, Thai, or general Asian cooking.
