Our Story 💡
Our Story 💡
I would like to share with you, the story and inspiration of Betsita's sauces. I remember the first chilli sauce I made back home, was the salsa jalapeña, I enhanced it by following my grandma's cooking tips. I started to make that sauce for almost every family reunion.
I understood the importance of sauce since I was very little, as my father would always sat at the table asking for more sauce, and if there wasn't any, he would always say: Adonde esta la salsita? (where is the little sauce?)
When I moved to Wellington with my husband, I had to call my mom, so that she could send me her tomato salsita recipe asap! because I couldn't find anything like that.
I love to fusion elements of different culinary traditions, and my husband enjoys creating the hottest hot sauces with an ample amount of fresh NZ grown chilli peppers (ghost, magma, trinidad moruga, rocoto and others), with beautiful zesty and citrus spices, making the perfect layering of flavour and heat.
So we decided to start creating sauces combining Tropical, Caribbean, Indigenous and Spanish flavours.
Our mission is to produce the best tasting sauces, for you to have an easy way to lift your meals up.
Studying culinary arts helped me learn more about food quality assurance and safety. All of our products are handcrafted in Wellington, with the freshest produce, best quality New Zealand ingredients and made with care.

Me gustaría compartir con ustedes la historia e inspiración de Betsita’s sauce. Recuerdo que la primera salsa de chile que hice en casa, fue la salsa jalapeña, siguiendo los consejos de cocina de mi abuela. Comencé a hacer esa salsa para casi todas las reuniones familiares.
Comprendí la importancia de la salsa desde que era muy pequeña, ya que mi padre siempre se sentaba a la mesa y pedía más salsa, y si no había, siempre decía: ¿Adonde esta la salsita?
Cuando me mudé a Wellington con mi esposo, tuve que llamar a mi mamá para que me enviara la receta de salsita de tomate lo antes posible, porque no podia encontrar nada de eso aca.
Me encanta fusionar elementos de diversas tradiciones culinarias, y mi esposo disfruta crear las mejores salsas picantes con una gran cantidad de chiles frescos cultivados en Nueva Zelanda (ghost, magma, trinidad moruga, rocoto y otros), con especias cítricas, para el balance perfecto de sabor y picor.
Así que decidimos comenzar a crear salsas combinando sabores tropicales, caribeños, indígenas y españoles.
Nuestra misión es producir las salsas de mejor sabor, para que usted tenga una manera rápida y fácil de elevar sus comidas a otro nivel.
Estudiar arte culinario me ayudó a conocer más sobre la garantía, calidad de los alimentos y la seguridad. Todos los productos son hechos a mano en Wellington, con los productos más frescos, los mejores ingredientes de Nueva Zelanda y hechos con esmero y cuidado.

Ingredients
Method Steam the crayfish for around 6 minutes, or until it starts turning red (don’t worry, it’s ok if it’s a little undercooked, we’ll cook it more in the butter).De-shell the tails, cut the crayfish to your liking (I cut it around 2cm by 2cm).Heat the butter and paprika in a pan, cook the crayfish gently, for no more than 90 seconds. Let it cool down, and mix it with the dressing, add salt and pepper to tasteBrush the buns with melted butter and grill them on a pan until they turn a bit golden. I used baby italian bread, because I personally prefer it, over hot dog buns, and I cut the edges a bit, to brush the butter, before grilling them. Garnish with chives.
