SWEET RED PEPPER SPREADS

Great density pastes, pâtés and sauces with sweet red pepper (of Florina) as their main ingredient. They are prepared during September and October when the peppers are ripe in Western Macedonia. The peppers are charcoal grilled, peeled, seeded by hand and, after they are ground, they simmer for hours in pots together with the rest of the ingredients. Extra virgin olive oil is used in all our recipes whose common characteristic is the unique smoked flavour of charcoal grilled pepper. The high degree of ingredient density, between 70% and 80%, makes the spreads special and brings out their taste and fragrance. Their ingredients and their preparation are based on traditional and family recipes from Florina and Pella. They are 100% natural and handmade without preservatives and industrially processed ingredients.
