Brazilian Hot Pepper Sauce

Brazilian Hot Pepper Sauce is a spicy condiment popular in Portuguese, African and Brazilian cuisines, made from chilies, vinegar and seasonings and used to add heat and flavor to grilled meats, stews and snacks. It is very low in energy at 12kcal per 100g and typically delivers modest amounts of micronutrients found in peppers. In addition to being a low-calorie way to boost flavor, hot pepper sauce contains vitamin-rich red peppers and small amounts of protein, plus antioxidant compounds from the chiles that can contribute to vegetable-derived polyphenols and carotenoids.
