A while ago I came across this Syrian dish and I was mesmerized by how flavorful it was! I couldn’t stop ordering it and thinking about making it, until I did! It’s a rich tasting condiment with a complex of flavors from the red peppers, pomegranate molasses , walnuts and much more! To start, I picked some Ontario grown Greenhouse Red peppers–available all year round, super sweet and sustainably grown. As soon as I saw those red peppers, I knew it was time to share this recipe!

✅It’s perfect as a dip with pita or veggies

✅It’s a great condiment to grilled meats

✅It can also make a delicious sauce to pasta, a tasty spread on your sandwiches and a great sauce for your pizzas–YES Pizza!
