Yemenite Schug Recipe

Every cuisine has its hot sauce recipe favorite and its own gamut of condiments it hails from, that becomes the pride and joy of their creations: Salsa, Harissa, Charif, Schug, Chutney, Hot Pepper Jelly, to name just a few. All delicious and all worth making.

I confess I love them all!

Schug is the Yemenite Favorite, all-green, pungent and pleasantly acrid.
