Mediterranean-Inspired Chili Sauces

The Dabka Chili Sauce Has a Rich, Versatile Flavor

The Dabka Chili Sauce is a new product that aims to provide a tasty way to enhance a meal with a touch of Mediterranean-Inspired flavor. The sauce was created by Danish entrepreneur Chris Flagstad who developed the product over the source of a year to get it just right for use with an array of dishes and recipes. The sauce is made with Roma tomatoes, Californian sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, onion, cumin and ghost peppers.

Founder and CEO Chris Flagstad spoke on the Dabka Chili Sauce saying, "We wanted the sauce to have the ultimate taste with a smooth consistency, pleasing heat levels and the perfect balance between acid and sweetness, salt and bitterness, and, of course, umami. My favourite ways to use Dabka are with grilled vegetables, falafel, gyro’s, flatbread and tomato salad – basically anything you would eat hummus and pesto with – that plus some heat. I love to spice up my favourite dishes, like pasta, eggs, or avocado toast, with it or simply just dip chips in in to give them an extra kick of flavor.”
