What shito does for you.

Shito is made from real food: fish, shellfish, fresh roots and peppers. Here is what that brings to your plate.

Shito is a condiment. Enjoy a spoonful or two as part of a balanced diet. Because it's slow-fried in oil it's rich in energy, so a little goes a long way. The information here is general, not medical advice. Allergy note: contains fish and shellfish (shrimps, herrings, tuna).

Now you know what's inside.

Time to taste it. Classic shito, delivered to your door.
