About the Brand
Encona Sauces’ hallmark natural warmth and rich flavours come from the
strong sunshine you find in the places where we grow our spices. Our
expert sauce makers take these spices and use their unrivalled skills to
blend them to perfection, adding a generous helping of Caribbean
sunshine to every variety of sauce we produce.
Available from most supermarkets and convenience stores, Encona Sauces have been firm favourites with the UK’s Afro Caribbean population for generations. These days demand is growing from a new and appreciative audience, the increasing numbers of food lovers of all kinds who take their food flavour seriously.
Brand Story
The world in a bottle - The cosmopolitan roots of Caribbean cuisine
reflect these beautiful, sun soaked islands’ dramatic history as the
world’s crossroads where Europe, Africa, the Americas and Asia met. As
people arrived in the UK from the four corners of the globe, they
brought with them the recipes and, most important, the ingredients they
loved from home. The different traditions mingled together and evolved
into the delicious, spicy mixture of tastes we know and love as
Caribbean cooking.
If you have a mind to do so, you can pick out the extraordinary mix of influences and ingredients that go into Caribbean cookery, and which we are proud to present for you to enjoy in the convenient form of the Encona Sauces range.
Set your own temperature - Hot or cool, from a tangy, tropical, peppery zing to fragrant but mild richness with a touch of chilli, Encona Sauces have an authentic flavour to bring some tropical sunshine to your meals - at a heat to suit you. Have a look at our product pages to find your favourite Caribbean sauce for more details.
Trust us to deliver - Caribbean sauces from smaller, less experienced suppliers can vary widely in quality. At Encona we have been making our sauces to the same high standards for many decades, so you and your family can be sure every bottle you buy will taste as great as the one before.
Exactly what it says on the label - the original and best hot pepper sauce from the Caribbean, made using only the very best scotch bonnet and habanero peppers, blended with traditional island spices.
A family favourite for over four decades, it is delicious as a cooking ingredient, or as a condiment with chicken, meat, fish and vegetables.
Encona Thai Sweet Chilli Dip is a Thai-inspired sauce with a Caribbean twist, which we prepare to our own special recipe combining a mild blend of chillies and garlic with sugar and limejuice to provide a delicious, gently spiced, sweet flavour.
Traditionally served as a dip with spring rolls, seafood and fired chicken, it is equally delicious in stir-fries or sandwiches.
We prepare our Sweet Mango Chilli Dip from fresh mango and habanero peppers, blended to give a deliciously fragrant and mild chilli flavour. A perfect dip for seafood and cold meats, it is equally great as a marinade for grilled foods, in sandwiches or kept on standby to transform salads
