Toprak Doğal Sweet Pepper Paste (tatlı biber salçası) is a thick, deep-red Turkish pepper paste made from sun-ripened sweet red peppers grown in Kahramanmaraş (Maraş), a region long known for its peppers. This is the mild, sweet version — rich and gently smoky, not the hot (acı) one — so it adds deep pepper flavour and colour without heat.
Following the traditional Maraş method, the peppers are harvested at peak season, sorted, washed and crushed, then sun-dried in the open air for about six to seven days until they ripen into a concentrated paste. Salt is added and the paste is filled into jars. Nothing else goes in.
Ingredients: red pepper, salt, vegetable oil. No preservatives, colourants or additives.
- Net weight: 400 g glass jar
- Origin: Kahramanmaraş, Türkiye
- Flavour: naturally sweet and mild, smooth, gently smoky — not spicy
- Storage: keep in a cool, dry place; refrigerate after opening
How to use it: stir a spoonful into soups, stews, lentil dishes, rice and tomato-based sauces to build a savoury, sun-dried-pepper base. Mix it into marinades for chicken, lamb and köfte, or use it as a filling for pide and börek. It also works simply spread on warm bread at breakfast, the way it is eaten across Turkey. A little goes a long way, so start with one teaspoon and adjust to taste.
If you want depth of pepper flavour in your cooking without any chilli burn, this sweet Maraş paste is the one to keep in the pantry. For those who prefer heat, the hot (acı) version delivers the same character with a kick.
