Description
Sambal Oelek Chili Paste - 370 g
Sambal Oelek is a traditional Indonesian spice paste, originating from Southeast Asian cuisine, and has become widely known throughout the world as an essential flavour component. The paste is made from crushed red chili peppers, which make up the dominant ingredient with a proportion of approx. 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 chili bits. The taste is intense, sharp, and spicy with a distinct 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 as a dipping sauce or table condiment. It can be added directly during cooking to give the dish depth and strength, or served separately as an accompaniment. Sambal Oelek is also well suited for marinades and dressings, where it contributes both heat and complexity. The product comes in a practical 370g glass, which is easy to store and dispense. Storage is recommended in a dry place. The paste is aimed at anyone who wants to add authentic Asian seasoning to everyday dishes, and is particularly popular among food enthusiasts working with Indonesian, Thai, or general Asian cooking.
