Salad Dressing Recipes. Featuring 325 FREE Salad Dressing Recipes. Recipe: Zhug (Yemeni Hot Sauce) - Aglaia Kremezi - Health. This is my version of this traditional Yemenite sauce, from my book Mediterranean Hot and Spicy.
Zhug was brought to Israel by Yemenite Jews and is now the hot condiment of choice in Israel. You will find zhug (also called z'houg) made with green or red chiles in falafel stands and in the kebab restaurants that serve shawarma—vertically skewered and roasted pieces of meat—accompanied by many different salads, spreads, relishes, and freshly baked pita bread. Zhug is made with fresh chiles, garlic, coriander, cardamom, and other spices.
