Yunnan Lemon Chili Sauce 290 g

1. **Intertwined Sourness and Spiciness**: As a prominent feature, the sourness of lemons and the spiciness of chili peppers are skillfully blended. The sourness of lemons is fresh and bright, providing a refreshing base for the sauce, without being too sharp or astringent. The spiciness of the chili peppers is mellow and impactful. These two flavors are intertwined with each other. The sourness neutralizes part of the pungent stimulus of the spiciness, while the spiciness highlights the freshness of the lemons, forming a unique sour and spicy flavor that is both appetizing and helps to relieve greasiness.
2. **Rich in Fruity Aroma**: The fruity aroma of lemons is very prominent in the sauce. It has a unique fresh aroma of lemons, as if it can make people think of the scent emitted by lemon trees under the sun. This fruity aroma sets off the flavor of the chili peppers, enriching the olfactory experience of the sauce. When you open the bottle cap, you can smell a rich and alluring mixed aroma, which greatly increases your appetite.
3. **Mellow Spiciness**: The varieties of chili peppers selected usually have a unique flavor. After processing, the spiciness of the chili peppers is mellow and has rich layers. It is not simply a burning hotness, but there is a hint of faint smoky aroma in the spiciness, probably due to the unique flavor generated during the stir-frying or fermentation process of the chili peppers. This mellow spiciness gives the sauce more depth and a lingering aftertaste.
4. **Slightly Sweet to Enhance Freshness**: Some Yunnan lemon chili sauces will add a small amount of sweet ingredients such as sugar or honey, bringing a subtle sweetness. This trace of sweetness plays a role in enhancing the freshness, making the flavor of the sauce more balanced and rich. It can better blend the sourness and spiciness, making the overall taste more harmonious and leaving a more pleasant gustatory experience when tasting.
5. **Complex Aroma**: In addition to the flavors of lemons and chili peppers, other spices such as garlic, ginger, and Chinese prickly ash may also be added to the sauce. The addition of these spices further enriches the aroma layers of the sauce. The pungent aroma of garlic, the spiciness of ginger, and the numbing aroma of Chinese prickly ash, etc., are intertwined with the flavors of lemons and chili peppers, forming a complex and alluring composite aroma. When used to pair with various ingredients, it can add a unique flavor.
