🎁 Gift number 5:
We have the gotta get it gift for all of the people on your list – HOSA Fermented Hot Sauce. Made right up the road in Bellingham, WA, HOSA is a 2020 Good Food Award finalist ensuring it has a “tasty, authentic, and responsible” stamp of approval.
🔥
HOSA, the hot sauce made to accentuate, not dominate, is an indispensable recipe ingredient or condiment. Each batch contains no junk or gunk – only a few simple ingredients like locally produced sea salt and seasonal peppers from area farms – and is fermented for a minimum of six weeks for fab flavor and gut goodness. From plucking picture-perfect peppers to packaging the palate pleasing piquancy, each part of the pepper preserving process is painstakingly precise – it’s a promise.
🌶
Pick a peck of HOSA hot sauce and spice up the season for family and friends, or yourself.
