Hot-headz Smoked Chilli & Garlic Sauce

Hot-headz Smoked Chilli & Garlic Sauce

Today's dish is also a big shout out for a fabulous sauce I've recently discovered an the most amazing shop I found it in.

Whilst visiting Brighton Marina to see my friend and great photographer Kirstie Blake at Eclectia Gallery I was introduced to Frank Jay and his amazing shop, the Chilli Shop, Frank stocks anything and everything you could possibly think of relating to chillis and lots of that you could never have thought of, more importantly Frank will take time and make a real effort to understand exactly what you are looking for, will help with ideas on how to use his products and generally help out.

There dozens of tasters out so you can try before you buy and with many of the locally sourced products frank can give you full provenance, you'd be amazed how many chilli based products are made in the South of England

Smoked Chilli & Garlic Hot Sauce from Hot Headz is a medium strength, smoky sauce which can be served a condiment, it will add a healthy but not over powering kick to chicken, fish, pasta or even eggs. With a good helping of garlic it creates a great rich, rounded flavour and certainly brought my dish of chicken breast with spaghetti and fried peppers to life. The flavour is long and deep, probably because of the smokiness and lingers in the mouth for a while, it's lovely and warming especially on a cod evening like we had in Southampton.

I'd certainly suggest this as a a great sauce for anyone who likes a kick to their meal and wants to bring a simple dish of chicken and pasta to life.
