Erős Pista

Erős Pista (Hungarian: [ˈɛrøːʃ ˈpiʃtɒ], 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.

[1] Other versions of the sauce exist: Édes Anna (Sweet Anna), which is less spicy,[2] and Haragos Pista (Furious Steve), which is more.

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

^ The most popular chili sauce in Hungary is "Piros arany" (Red gold)[citation needed]
