Chilli Flavoured Cream – Sepi

Discover Sardinian passion with a bold and unmistakable touch: the Chilli Flavoured Cream by Sepi Formaggi is a unique creation that combines the millennia-old cheesemaking tradition of Sardinia with an energetic and vibrant spice. This spreadable cream is the result of an exclusive and carefully crafted combination of long-aged cheeses — primarily Pecorino and goat cheese — enriched with selected sheep’s, goat’s and cow’s milk ricottas, all made from Italian raw materials with a strong connection to the Sardinian territory. Its distinctive character comes from the carefully selected addition of crushed chillies, which provide an intense and distinctly spicy flavour, without overpowering the delicate milky and vegetal aromas of the base. Although chilli is not native to the island, it has become part of Sardinian culinary tradition, where it is used to give character and liveliness to simple dishes — an aspect that Sepi has chosen to honour with this full-bodied cream.

The production of this spreadable processed cheese follows a controlled and meticulous process that guarantees a velvety, homogeneous consistency throughout the product, ideal for easy spreading and incorporation into recipes. Emulsifying salts and antioxidants are used as necessary to ensure stability and food safety and to support optimal preservation. These elements are essential for obtaining a long-lasting and easy-to-use cream, while ensuring high quality and full production transparency. Its colour is an inviting creamy white, dotted with red pieces of chilli that reveal its bold character. The absence of a rind makes the product immediately ready to eat, preserving its aromatic freshness right through to the last taste.

This cream is ideal for anyone looking for a bold flavour and a versatile ingredient in the kitchen. It is perfect as a dressing for pasta dishes, such as risottos and pasta with vegetables or meat, where it melts beautifully to create a spicy and aromatic creamy finish that adds an unexpected touch. Traditionally, in Sardinia, it is spread on pane carasau or pane guttiau for an appetiser or an energising snack, often accompanied by a drizzle of fine extra virgin olive oil to balance the intensity and add fruity notes. Its texture also makes it suitable as a flavourful base for bold sauces, for filling sandwiches and piadine with a spicy touch, or as a bold finishing touch for meat recipes, such as cold roasts, and grilled vegetables.

Sepi Formaggi guarantees the traceability of its raw materials and the origin of its milk, using local milk sourced exclusively from Sardinian pastures. This detail establishes an inseparable link between this Made in Italy product and its territory of origin in the province of Oristano. The company's commitment is to preserve the quality and authenticity of Sardinian flavours. Choosing the Chilli Flavoured Cream means bringing a Sardinian delicacy with a strong, unforgettable character to the table: a concentrated blend of flavour and creaminess in a practical jar, ready for any gourmet occasion. Its long shelf life and versatility make it an essential ingredient in modern cooking.
