What is shito?

Ghana’s treasured black pepper sauce

Shito is the sauce that sits on every Ghanaian table. Pepper, onions, shrimps and herring are slow-cooked until the whole thing turns deep, dark and glossy, with a savour that makes everything it touches taste better. Ours is cooked in small batches in Accra.
