Sacla Italian Red Pepper Chili Pesto with DOP Cheese

On the hills of Italy, red peppers ripen under the Mediterranean sun until they’re bursting with sweetness and color. Blended with fiery chilies, pecorino DOP cheese, almonds, and fresh herbs, they become Sacla’s Italian Red Pepper Chili Pesto—a sauce that’s bold, vibrant, and full of life.

This pesto brings warmth to every dish, striking a balance between sweetness, nuttiness, and spice. Toss it with pasta for a quick arrabbiata, spread it on bruschetta for a lively appetizer, or add it to soups, stir-fries, and curries for unexpected depth. It’s the kind of jar that transforms simple meals into something unforgettable, one spoonful at a time.
