Piri Piri Sauce (Portugal, Algarve) Homemade image

Recipezaar already has 11 recipes for piri piri (sauce, dressing, oil, spice) and 10 recipes using it, so why add another? First, piri piri is in the cuisines of Africa, Portugal, South America and the Caribbean, so there are variations to the ingredients, heat and form. Second, all of the versions currently posted are "quick", i.e., whether the ingredients are raw or cooked, you can prepare them and use them the same day -- this version is the more authentic marinated and pickled version (Warning: from the time you start to make this until the time you can use it is 5 weeks!! I didn't count this in the prep time). Finally, I've had this version, love the taste and know how reliable the recipe source is. With credit to Elisabeth Luard's "The Food of Spain and Portugal: A Regional Celebration", here is piri piri as made in the Algarve ... Recipe provided for Zaar World Tour 5 (2009).

Categories     Peppers

Time 30m

Yield 1 1/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 ounces hot red chili peppers, fresh, seeds and veins removed, roughly sliced
8 ounces mild red peppers, seeded and roughly sliced
1/4 cup coarse salt
2/3 cup white wine vinegar

Steps:

  • For chiles, the authentic variety is malagueta, but I've used jalopeno or habanero.
  • Pack the chiles and peppers into a sterilized jar with the salt.
  • Seal and leave for 4 weeks.
  • After 4 weeks, put in a food processor, add the vinegar and blend.
  • Put in a bottle, keep in a cool, dark place and let the flavors meld for a week.
  • Enjoy!
