We joined with Lucky's Market in Boulder!
At Lucky's, we love good food. Not just natural and organic food, but the food that's so much a part of our fondest memories. The good stuff.
It’s just that somehow so much of the good stuff has become really expensive. Sold in stores that act like they’re doing you a big fat favor bringing it to you. And maybe they are, but they shouldn’t act like it. That’s why we started Lucky’s Market.
We believe good food shouldn’t be a luxury, it should be a right. If you don’t want to eat things like pesticides, antibiotics and growth hormones, you shouldn’t have to. Natural and organic food shouldn’t be priced out of your reach. We also have the crazy notion that we shouldn’t adopt a holier-than-thou attitude if your grandma’s recipe calls for something that doesn’t fit some people’s idea of what’s good for you.
So we created a store that will hook an entire generation on eating a little bit healthier. A store that does serious work, without taking itself too seriously. A store dedicated to good food. And making sure that everyone can enjoy it.

Mamas Peri Peri Hot Sauce
Mamas Peri Peri Hot Sauce
Culinary History of the Chili
The culinary use of the indigenous Capsicum chili fruit originated along the west and north-western area of the Andes mountains in South America. Archaeologists discovered traces of Capsicum chili on milling stones in south-western Ecuador that date back to 4000BC! It is documented that migratory birds (which lack the capsaicum burn receptor) travelled from South America and assisted in germinating the five Capsicum species - Annum, Chinense, Frutescens, Baccatum and Pubescens - locally and the world discovered these amazing fruits via the trade routes. Due to the large number of cultivar names in different regions there are now over 50000 pepper varieties that exist, each cultivated to maximize flavor and some are developed to maximize their heat index. Vasco da Gama the legendary Portuguese explorer - reached the blistering heat of the wild, untamed Mozambique coast in 1498, bringing with him the Frutescens variety chili (often called African Birds Eye chili, or in Portuguese” piri piri chili”) which soon found its way to Southern Africa. Hence the subsequent popularity of Peri peri hot sauce (or “pepper pepper” in the African Swahili language) thanks to those famed Portuguese explorers of old. It is from these momentous events in the origins of African Birds Eye Chili, with an unmistakable Portuguese and African influence, that we bring you Mamas Peri Peri Hot Sauce.

"I was sent this pretty looking sauce the other day. Thanks, @mamas_peri_peri
I can always tell by looking at a sauce if I'll like it.
Anyone know what I mean?
The look of this one is almost 'creamy' but it's not actually creamy and has no dairy, of course. I just love the way they look and always know.
This is a peri-peri sauce that has delicious notes of ginger, hot peppers (Thai, jalapeños, Fresno), garlic and some acidity to round it out. I taste the ginger at first, which I love. The texture is not chunky at all but is thicker than many other sauces. Flecks of red peppers come through.
The heat is medium but don't be fooled. It's got a nice mouth burn that lasts but is not overpowering. Both experienced chili heads and newbies will enjoy.
When I think peri-peri my head goes to chicken. This would pair wonderfully with that, especially if you make hot wings with it.
I can also see myself using this when I cook a white, flaky fish or seafood stew. Peri peri was popularized by Portugal, so think foods from that region.
I really like this sauce and find it to be very versatile and different from many other sauces out there. It's always fun to try new ones.
Thanks again, @mamas_peri_peri"

"I've tried a lot of peri-peri sauces, but this has to be one of the best I've ever had.
Here's some info about it from the company website :
"An ancient South African family recipe carefully blended in a time-honored tradition of Portuguese culinary excellence here in Denver, Colorado. We source only the freshest and finest ingredients. No colorants or preservatives ever make it into a bottle of Mamas Peri Peri hot sauce, and it is gluten-free."
The sauce is very citrus forward, with a great tartness from the lemon that you expect from a peri-peri sauce.
The other flavors blend beautifully with the other ingredients. They kept it very traditional, but with their own touch. The onions, red peppers, and garlic give this a complex flavor that will have you wanting more.
The heat is on the milder side, but i think that allows you to taste the more subtle flavors. This is a sauce that you could go through an entire bottle in a meal and still want more."
Heat: 3/10
Flavor: 9.5/10
