Authentic Ghanaian Hot Pepper Sauce - Bold, Savory, and Smoky

Divine Shito Pepper Sauce is a rich, traditional Ghanaian black pepper condiment (often called "Shito din," meaning "black pepper") renowned for its complex, savory depth and fiery heat. This generous 16oz jar brings the authentic taste of West Africa directly to your table.

Unlike simple chili oil, Shito is an artisanal sauce, slow-cooked in oil to create a thick, dark, and intensely flavorful relish.

Key Features & Flavor Profile:

  • Authentic Recipe: Crafted using a time-honored blend of hot chili peppers, onions, garlic, ginger, and aromatic spices.

  • Savory Depth: The rich, umami flavor comes from the inclusion of dried fish and/or dried shrimp/prawn powder, a critical element that distinguishes Shito.

  • Versatile Condiment: Divine Shito is incredibly versatile and can be used as:

    • A Dip: Perfect for fried yam, plantain (dodo), chips, and crackers.

    • A Topping: Essential for traditional Ghanaian staples like Waakye, Kenkey, or Banku, and excellent on rice, eggs, or noodles.

    • A Marinade/Cooking Base: Use it to infuse a smoky, spicy kick into grilled meats, seafood, and stir-fries.

  • All-Natural Ingredients: Made with high-quality, natural components for a homemade taste without artificial preservatives.

Divine Shito is a must-have pantry staple for anyone who enjoys bold flavors and authentic West African cuisine.

Size: 16 ounces (1 lb) Cuisine: Ghanaian (West African) Note: Contains dried fish/shrimp ingredients for a savory flavor (may vary slightly by batch).
