INSPIRED BY YEMEN. MADE IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA.
A CONDIMENT REIMAGINED AS OLIVE OIL.
Sahawiq is a vibrant green chilli condiment from Yemen, known for its fresh herbs, chilli and aromatic character.
Paul's inspiration came from using a salsa-like sahawiq with carrot tops at Aalia. Working with Rio Vista, that idea was transformed into an Agrumato olive oil, capturing its distinctive green, herbaceous character in an entirely new way.
The result is something quite different from a traditional chilli oil.
Fresh. Green. Fragrant. With just enough heat.
NOT JUST ANOTHER CHILLI OIL.
Where Shatta brings warmth, spice and depth, Sahawiq is all about freshness.
Drizzle it over a tomato or cucumber salad. Spoon it over labneh or hummus. Finish grilled fish, chicken or prawns. Toss it through roasted vegetables or grains. Pour it over eggs or simply serve it with warm flatbread.
Paul even suggests something as simple as salad with salt and Sahawiq — exactly the kind of effortless use this product should communicate.
Pour generously. Let the herbs do the work.
