Pebre Recipe
Description
This version of Pebre includes neutral or olive oil whisked with water, white wine vinegar, and smashed garlic until the mixture thickens slightly. Then chopped tomato, aji peppers (such as Aji Amarillos or alternatives like jalapenos or serranos), onion, cilantro, and scallions are stirred in. The blend is refrigerated for about two hours to allow flavors to meld but can be served immediately.
The resulting Pebre offers a balance of acidity from vinegar, heat from the peppers, fresh herbaceous notes from cilantro and scallions, and a mild garlic depth. It is a popular accompaniment to grilled meats, bread, and other dishes seeking a bright, fresh condiment.
The sauce will keep in the refrigerator for about a week when covered. Variations can include adding cumin, paprika, or lemon juice, and experimenting with different vinegar types to tailor the flavor.
