How do I use them?

If this is your first time using our sauces we highly recommend following the instructions on the back of the jar. That way you can experience the traditional way of eating our authentic Persian meal bases.

All the sauces are very versatile and you can get creative by using them in your own home made recipes. We love that. We do however have lots more recipe ideas for you to follow under the 'Recipes' tab.

Are they spicy?

No, they are all mild. Our Tagine sauce is a bit more peppery than the rest.

Persian food is very mild in flavour. Although the food is packed with aromatic spices, there is no chilli in any of our sauces. The only 'hot' spice is black pepper. If you want something with a bit of a bite, try our Middle Estern Turmeric & Pepper. If you are after something with zero heat, try our Fesenjoon (Walnut & Pomegranate).

Can I eat them cold?

It is recommended that the sauces are heated before use.

Do I use the whole jar?

This depends on your recipe. For the traditional stew recipe, adding the full jar will create 4 - 6 serves. You may use less than the whole jar for different recipes or if you want to create less than the 4 - 6
serves.

Please remember that because we do not use preservatives in any
of our sauces, then they need to be consumed within 2 weeks after
opening.

How long do they last once opened?

Because
we do not use preservitives, after openning the jar they should be
treated like any other real cooked food. Our recommendation is that the
jar be consumed within 2 weeks once opened. Heat before eat.
