Piccantissima is the quintessence of Mediterranean passion enclosed in a jar. Only selected chili peppers, grown in the heart of Salento and handcrafted, are dipped in extra virgin olive oil to release all their bold, enveloping character.
Description
Piccantissima is the true essence of Peperoncino Piccante Sott’Olio Salentino and represents a true excellence of Apulian gastronomic tradition, designed for those who love intense and authentic flavors. It is made exclusively with hot chili peppers from Salento, harvested when fully ripe to ensure an explosion of flavor and a persistent but balanced spiciness. The artisanal processing begins with careful selection and grinding of fresh chili peppers, which are then flavored with natural ingredients and preserved in the highest quality extra virgin olive oil.
The result is a genuine product, with no added preservatives, capable of enhancing any dish with its unmistakable aroma and spicy note. The addition of wine vinegar, lemon juice and a touch of garlic powder helps create a perfect balance between acidity and flavor, while extra virgin olive oil envelops and preserves the chili, keeping its organoleptic properties intact.

It can be used to enrich main courses of meat or fish, or as a secret ingredient for boldly flavored sauces and marinades. Its creamy texture makes it easy to spread, while its intense aroma immediately recalls the warm and welcoming atmospheres of Salento.
