Properly stored in a sterilized, airtight jar, adjika can last up to 1-2 months in the fridge. Always use a clean spoon to prevent contamination.
Yes, this adjika recipe is naturally vegan as it contains only plant-based ingredients like chili peppers, garlic, herbs, and spices.
Absolutely! Freeze adjika in small portions (e.g., ice cube trays) for up to 6 months. Thaw in the fridge before use.
