Shipping Pepper Paste from Turkey to Syria, Jordan, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia

What matters when shipping pepper paste and tomato paste

Paste is heavy because much of its weight is water and glass, so a small carton can reach the upper weight limit quickly; check the gross weight before ordering.

Hot and mild

Turkish pepper paste comes hot, mild or mixed and is the base of many dishes and muhammara. Read the label for salt content, and after opening keep it in the fridge with a thin layer of oil on top.

Sweet or hot

Sweet pepper paste is a base for soups, stuffed vegetables and everyday dishes, while hot paste is added in small amounts for a sharper taste. If the family differs in how much heat it tolerates, order two small jars of both kinds instead of one large jar of either.

How to keep an opened jar

Pepper paste spoils if it is opened and left, so keep the jar in the fridge under a thin layer of olive oil to stop it drying. Avoid dipping a wet spoon in it because water speeds up spoilage.

Heavy glass and leaks

Glass jars of paste are heavy and leak if the lid shifts, so ask for vacuum-sealed lids and wrap each jar in a leak-proof bag. Tins are lighter but can dent, so make sure the carton does not press on them.
