Description
This blood orange aji panca cooking sauce is inspired by Peruvian cuisine, which is a true food-fusion culture. Peruvian cuisine is among the most varied in the world, integrating influences from local and immigrant cultures. Aji Panca is a type of pepper commonly grown in Peru, and frequently used in Peruvian cuisine. It is a deep dark red, mild pepper with a smoky, fruity taste, which matches perfectly with blood orange. A hint of curry and ginger gives this sauce multiple layers of flavor.
 
I suggest that you combine this sauce with any meat or fish while cooking – or simply add it at the end of cooking as a condiment.  It is also excellent as a complement to cheese and vegetables.

    Amazing citrus and spice flavor

    This is one of the best simmer sauces that I've ever tried. We did the aji sauce tonight over some chicken thighs, potatoes and end-of-season garden vegetables and it was transcendent coming out of the skillet, everything just came together so nicely. Way to turn some humble chicken thighs into a gourmet meal! Those sauces need to be in my pantry staples forever. So good. Did I mention, good? cooking note: the jar recommends pouring over and letting simmer on stovetop which would be delicious but, I will say that browning whatever aromatics and protein you are using and then cooking it in a dutch oven or covered skillet in the oven (rather than stovetop) for a longer time will deepen the flavor and really get everything caramelized. It just gets velvety and rich and gives everything longer to dance.
