Jalapeño #PurpleThai
Reliable shipping
Flexible returns
Purple bell peppers don't usually share a jar with jalapeños, but fermentation has a way of making unexpected combinations feel inevitable. Our Jalapeño #PurpleThai starts with Red River Valley jalapeños and locally sourced purple bells, slow-fermented alongside fragrant Thai basil using small-batch lacto-fermentation. As lactic acid bacteria do their work, the peppers deepen in complexity and the basil takes on a floral, almost herbal richness that fresh sauce can't replicate.
The heat arrives gently, medium and steady, carried on a current of tangy brightness that lingers just long enough to keep you reaching back in. Floral, grounding, and a little unexpected.
Layer it into a slow-braised roast, stir it through coconut rice, or use it as a finishing drizzle on grilled salmon. This is a fermented pepper sauce built for slow food moments.
Some magic just takes time.
