Tương Ớt Xiêm Xanh is a Vietnamese fermented green chili sauce produced by Dh Foods. Its base consists of small green chilies known for their pronounced heat and vegetal aroma. Salted green chilies account for 30 percent of the product. The chilies are sourced from specialized growing areas in the Mekong Delta, the South Central Coast and the North Central Coast of Vietnam. They are mixed with vinegar, garlic and iodized salt before undergoing fermentation for approximately three months. During maturation, the chilies develop penetrating heat, mild acidity and a more pronounced aroma. In addition to the fermented base, the product contains water, sugar, vinegar and iodized salt. The finished sauce has a hot, salty and sour flavor with mild sweetness and aromas of green chili and garlic. According to the producer, the product contains no synthetic colors or artificial preservatives. It can be served with grilled or fried meat, seafood, beef, noodle soups and other dishes that require more pronounced heat.
