Homemade Erős Pista
The main ingredient: hot paprika

Erős Pista (Strong Steve) is the second most popular chili sauce in Hungary,[1] produced by Univer. Erős Pista is made from coarsely minced hot paprika and salt; containing nothing more perishable, it can be stored for a year in a refrigerator. It is also produced in a paste form.[2]

Other versions of the sauce exist: Édes Anna (Sweet Anna), which is less spicy,[3] and Haragos Pista (Furious Steve), which is more.[4]

Usage[edit]

Hungarians use Erős Pista in, for example, lecsó (a vegetable ragout), csirkepaprikás (chicken paprikash) and soups like halászlé (fisherman's soup) and gulyás (goulash).

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
