PIKLIZPLEASE
If you’ve heard of pikliz but aren’t quite sure how to use it, you’re not alone.
This bold Haitian-Caribbean condiment has traditionally been served alongside rich, savory foods — but today, pikliz is being used in far more creative ways.
From grilled meats to breakfast dishes, pikliz adds heat, acidity, and texture that instantly elevates everyday meals. Here are 10 of the most delicious ways to use it.
1. On Grilled or Roasted Meats
Pikliz cuts through rich meats like steak, pork, or chicken with acidity and crunch. Spoon it on just before serving for contrast and brightness.
2. With Seafood
From grilled shrimp to pan-seared fish, pikliz balances seafood beautifully. The vinegar sharpens flavor while the heat keeps things exciting.
3. On Tacos and Wraps
Use pikliz in place of slaw or salsa. It adds texture, spice, and freshness without overpowering the dish.
4. Burgers and Sandwiches
Pikliz works anywhere pickles or relish are used — but with more character. Add it to burgers, chicken sandwiches, or pulled pork.
5. With Eggs and Breakfast Dishes
Try pikliz with scrambled eggs, omelets, breakfast sandwiches, or avocado toast. It brings heat and acidity that wake up the entire plate.
6. Over Rice and Beans
This is one of the most traditional uses. Pikliz balances starch-heavy dishes and adds dimension with just a spoonful.
7. As a Finishing Touch for Bowls
Grain bowls, protein bowls, and vegetable bowls all benefit from a small amount of pikliz for contrast and texture.
8. With Fried Foods
Anything fried — plantains, potatoes, chicken — pairs perfectly with pikliz. The acidity cuts the richness instantly.
9. Mixed into Sauces or Dressings
Stir pikliz into mayo, yogurt, or vinaigrettes for a quick, flavor-packed sauce.
10. Anywhere Food Needs Brightness
If a dish feels heavy or flat, pikliz is often the missing element.
Traditional vs. Modern Pikliz
Traditionally, pikliz is a pickled slaw served as a side or topping.
Alexandra’s Pikliz® reimagines those flavors into modern condiment formats, including a relish-style condiment, hot sauce, and hot honey — designed to be more versatile than traditional pikliz.
