| Comments |
| • |
Fiery, spicy, mouth burning, with a faint sweet undertone and so-o-o-o good (provided that you enjoy hot food). |
| • |
Spread on toast, or crackers, use as traditional pesto to season your favorite pasta, as side dish with grilled cheese, meat or seafood, season salads ... |
| • |
Glass containers are always recommended, as toxic chemicals from plastic containers tend to leach into conserved refrigerated food. |
| • |
It is important to sterilize the long-term storage jars with boiling water and put them in a warm oven to dry, or wash them in a dishwasher before using them. |
