Mr Vikki’s King Naga Pickle
Seeing Mr Vikki’s Queen Naga Pickle on Sunday Brunch last week reminded me I still had a jar of his King Naga in the fridge so I grabbed a couple of crackers (and a little bit of extra mature cheddar) and decided to finish it off.
As you will know from previous posts I’m a huge fan of Mr Vikki’s not only do they make some fantastic hot stuff everything I’ve tried has been packed full of flavour.
King Naga was no exception. It’s blindingly hot, not straight away but after a few seconds it really does explode. The more you eat the hotter it gets, luckily it doesn’t last too long.
But unlike so many other pickles/sauces/chutney’s that are this hot it’s not all about the heat, there’s lovely layers of spices, giving it a lovely Indian feel, this is then followed with a lovely aniseed undertone that not only adds a touch of sweetness it really compliments the other spices and gives it a lovely lingering after-taste that works perfectly with cheese.
The texture is great, its not too thick, there’s a fair bit of oil on the top which i usually mix in but I also quite like using what’s left for frying veg in for stir fries.
If you want to give it a go you can buy it for £3.50 from here (while you are their I suggest you order some of the chilli jam and ranch sauce too.
