What is pasteurization and why is it important for sambal?

At Mr. Scoville, we believe in the power of pure, natural flavors. Our sambals are carefully prepared without artificial preservatives. To ensure you can enjoy our products to the fullest, we choose a crucial process: pasteurization. But what exactly does this entail, and why is it so essential for the shelf life and safety of sambal?

Why pasteurize sambal?

Pasteurization is a technique in which foods are briefly heated to a temperature below 100°C (212°F). This process kills most pathogenic microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeasts, and molds, which could otherwise compromise the quality and safety of the product. The result? A sambal that is not only safe to eat but also has a longer shelf life. At Mr. Scoville, we consciously choose this method to keep our sambals natural and preservative-free.

Why Mr. Scoville chooses pasteurization to extend the shelf life of sambal

Instead of using artificial preservatives, we at Mr. Scoville use pasteurization to preserve the natural flavor and texture of our sambal. This process extends shelf life in a way that aligns with our mission: delivering high-quality products that are pure and genuine. This allows you to enjoy not only the spicy flavor of our sambals but also a product that is safe and sustainable.

How pasteurization works in making sambal

During the pasteurization process, our sambal is briefly heated to a specific temperature. This heat treatment is sufficient to eliminate microorganisms, yet gentle enough to preserve the sambal's flavor and nutritional value. This process ensures you can enjoy the spicy and adventurous flavors you've come to expect from Mr. Scoville for longer.

Safety and taste hand in hand

At Mr. Scoville, we want every jar of sambal that leaves our kitchen to meet the highest quality standards. Pasteurization plays a crucial role in this. It combines food safety with the preservation of flavor and texture – a win-win situation that aligns with our pursuit of perfection.
