Hello Everyone!


What's the difference between pepper paste and pepper sauce?

What are the best uses of pepper paste? Can we substitute one (paste or sauce ) for the other?

Many thanks,
Charmaine

Hi there, I always use tubes of green chilli puree when I cannot be bothered to cut up green chillies, pepper sauce is more of a condiment, I think, it comes in bottles in various strengths, the sweet kind is great - wonderful for perking up cooked dishes. Hope this helps, am only a home cook.

pepper sauce probably lasts longer, anad has a base of vinegar or oil

and it can have other ingredients as well (Salt, sugar, mustard, onion, garlic, lewmongrass, papaya, mango, tumeric, tomato, cloves, etc etc)
