Don't be fooled by the size of this tube, the hot pepper paste inside delivers big, piccante flavor with just a squeeze. IASA craft this devilish condiment from a Campanian pepper varietal named Amando, commonly called “Amante” (meaning “lover” in Italian) by locals.
Brilliant crimson peppers are mashed to a coarse paste, mixed with olive oil and salt, and left to macerate for months to develop layers of complex flavor. The macerated peppers are then blended into a fine, smooth texture akin to tomato paste.
