Make it once, and this will become your favorite go-to homemade condiment. Our Calabrian chili sauce recipe was designed for our Spicy Red Pie, but it's often requested for any of our pizzas to add some heat and flavor.
The secret to this sauce is really, well, the Calabrian chilies. Calabrian chilies are an Italian pepper that offer way more than just spice like most spicy peppers. Rather than a punch of heat in your mouth, they deliver a gradual warming with a bright and fruity flavor. And it's this unique flavor that'll make the sauce your favorite condiment to add to just about everything.
You can find them dried or packed in oil. Either version will work, but the dried version needs to be rehydrated. Just soak them in warm water for a couple hours, or you can leave them soaking overnight. And if there's any stems, you'll want to remove them before making the sauce.
It's so delicious, so easy to make, and can be added to just about anything as a hot sauce, dressing, or dip.
