Some Like it Hot
I know we haven't got to Summer just yet but it's always nice to have something to look forward to.
In this case, our heatwave has been bottled and grouped into a special sizzling collection of chilli sauces.
Stokes Chilli Jam
Meet one of the stars of the Stokes portfolio and an absolute 'must have' in the store cupboard.
It's a deliciously sticky jam, bursting with sweet chilli peppers, red peppers and red chilli heat.
We literally spoon it onto and into anything that deserves a bit of chilli enlightenment.
These cheese scones have been given the chilli treatment with Chilli Jam in each. Spoon it into your chilli con carne or add a little power to a sheepish Shepherds Pie.

Hot & Spicy BBQ Sauce
This is a wonderfully sweet, smoke flavoured chilli sauce. Rich with spicy tomato, sweetened with cane molasses and black treacle.
The chilli seeds release their punchy heat through the smoky finish.
Don't wait until the summer to enjoy it pasted onto a hot, spicy souvlaki.
Stir a couple of spoonfuls into a pan of baked beans for sweet and intense smokiness with a hot spicy kick.
Chipotle Ketchup
It brims full of real Italian tomatoes with a smoky, spicy kick!
Chipotle Chillies are Jalapenos left to ripen on the plant to a deep red, before being smoked dry, giving them their distinctive flavour.
Add it to chicken stock, ginger, a little Chinese 5 spice, Ramen Noodles and cooked chicken or pork meat for a delicious soup.
Stir it into a chilli con carne for a smoky difference, or add smokey heat to an onion gravy.
Chilli Ketchup
This does what it says on the proverbial tin.
It differs from those above by removing the smokiness, intensifying the tomatoes and adding red chillis and cayenne pepper for a mouth-tingling finish.
Use it to spice up Tasty Tacos by adding it to the onion, minced beef, garlic, tin of tomatoes and a little paprika.
Brush it onto sausages before grilling them or simply fire up a grilled halloumi and avocado burger.
Chilli Mayonnaise
This is a beautiful mayonnaise made with British rapeseed oil and British free range eggs to which we add jalapeno chillies, giving a subtle warmth through a rich and velvety mayonnaise.
These prawns just love the chilli dip - it makes a tasty change, even from our Bloody Mary Rose Sauce.
Make a potato salad sing with your supper.
Paste it onto the skin of chicken breasts before roasting them for a shiny crisp skin and subtle chilli finish.
