A ray of sunshine in a hot sauce

The aromatic intensity of Aji Lemon and Scotch Bonnet intertwines with the sunny sweetness of pineapple, accentuated by ginger and lime juice, while a Caribbean herb adds a final touch of authenticity. The result: a fruity, vibrant, and refreshing sauce that transports every bite to the sun-drenched shores of the Caribbean.

Ingredients

Pineapple

A passionate tropical fruit, whose sweet and tangy flavor brings a lively and refreshing punch. It’s the ingredient that helps create sauces with exotic nuances, perfectly balancing the heat and making it less direct and more delightfully surprising.

Ginger

Ginger, a rhizome with citrusy notes and fresh heat, awakens the taste buds and enlivens sauces. Raw, it’s sharp; cooked, it mellows, providing brightness and tension while enhancing the perception of other flavors.

Carrot

The carrot is a versatile vegetable. It is chosen for its mild, sweet flavor, which adds natural roundness and a smooth texture. It is used for its healthy “filler” qualities, helping to blend flavors while providing a solid, comforting base for the sauce.
