Calabrian Hot Pepper Paste

This Calabrian hot pepper paste is a bold, spicy condiment made from crushed hot Calabrian peppers blended with olive oil, vinegar, and salt. It has a bright heat that builds quickly, balanced by a light tang from vinegar. The texture is thick and spoonable, so it blends easily into sauces or spreads smoothly over meats and vegetables. Use it in small amounts to add direct chile heat to pasta, eggs, grilled fish, or roasted vegetables.
