From the jar

Hi from the jar 👋

Thanks for scanning. So glad you found us.

Whether you tried Pepper Besties at a friend's table, found us at a market, or you're a happy regular — welcome. This page is just for you.

We're Letitia and Shirley — two friends, two moms, two working professionals who built this jar because the right one didn't exist on Canadian shelves. One jar, every meal we love. Now it's yours too.

Three ways to use the jar tonight

🥚 The 30-second egg upgrade

Scramble two eggs the way you always do. Plate. Add a heaped spoonful of Pepper Besties on top. Don't stir it in — let the heat of the eggs warm the sauce. Eat it standing up at the counter. Thank us later.

🥟 Dumpling dipping sauce, finally fixed

Store-bought soy sauce + a spoonful of Pepper Besties + a squeeze of lime. That's it. Works for steamed, pan-fried, or boiled dumplings. Kids who hate "spicy" will surprise you — the brown sugar and aromatics mellow the heat into something they actually like.

🌮 Taco night, leveled up

Whatever protein you're using (chicken, beef, mushroom, beans), spoon Pepper Besties straight into the pan during the last minute of cooking. The chunky peppers melt into the meat. Skip the salsa — you don't need it. Add fresh cilantro and lime on top.

Need another jar?

The first one tends to disappear fast. We'll ship a fresh one to your door.
