Description: Directly from North Africa's Barbary Coast, the Tunisian Baklouti pepper is rare and unique to this region. The Baklouti Chili Pepper is known for it prized complexity and heat. Growing up to 4"-6" in length, the Baklouti begins green when young and turns into a rich deep red when ripe. The Baklouti Chili Fused olive oil is the only example of this fruity and mildly spicy green chili olive oil in the world. Baklouti Chili Fused olive oil is made by crushing 1 pound of organic olives with 1.6 pounds of fresh whole green Baklouti chilies. These are the only two ingredients that stay in the malaxer until the flavours are harmoniously married. Baklouti adds a new and surprising dimension to salsas of all stripes. This is truly a unique artisan product that has hundreds of applications. CAUTION! VERY HOT!!
Tasting Profile / Serving Suggestions: A beautifully balanced fusion of heat and flavour. The Baklouti Chili Fused Olive Oil is pleasantly green on the nose and palate. The freshness of the green pepper comes through beautifully without getting lost in the heat. A great condiment and finishing oil for tagines and couscous. Add a new twist to a pasta dish, grilled vegetables, soups, and grilled meats. An exciting dipping oil.
