Is File Breakfast Sauce spicy?
The name alone does not tell you whether File Breakfast Sauce is hot. Its heat depends on the product recipe, so check the package description or try a small amount first if you are sensitive to chilli.
What ingredients are in File Breakfast Sauce?
Tomato and pepper are the defining ingredients of File Breakfast Sauce. Other ingredients and their proportions depend on the product recipe, so the package's ingredient list is the source for the exact formulation.

What is File Breakfast Sauce?
File breakfast sauce is a ready-to-serve tomato-and-pepper sauce intended for the breakfast table. Its savoury, gently tangy flavour and spreadable texture work well on bread, while the vegetable base also makes it an easy accompaniment to eggs or other breakfast dishes.
In Turkey, it is commonly served with bread alongside eggs, cheese and olives; elsewhere, you can use it as a sandwich spread or spoon a little onto toast. It is vegetable-based and low in protein, rather than a substantial source of it; a 100 g portion provides 83 calories. For a lighter meal, use a thin spread and pair it with eggs, beans or another filling protein-rich food.
