Are you crazy about d\u00f6ner kebab and hot sauce? Then forget the simple garlic sauce and sambal you normally have on your d\u00f6ner. Because hot sauce and kebab is the combination you’ll always make from now on. Whether you choose your all-time favorite hot sauce or a hot sauce that balances the fatty kebab a bit more, it’s delicious either way.<\/span><\/p>\n

More German than you think\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Many people immediately think of Turkey when they hear d\u00f6ner kebab, but did you know that this snack got its current, iconic form in Germany? In the 1970s, d\u00f6ner kebab was invented in Berlin by Turkish immigrants who adapted the traditional meat dish to German taste: sliced meat in a bread roll, with salad and sauces. By now, d\u00f6ner kebab has become an integral part of the German street scene and is even one of the country’s most popular fast food dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n

And if there’s anything typically German about d\u00f6ner, it’s the love for hot sauce with it! In Berlin, the d\u00f6ner capital of Europe, you can choose from a range of spicy sauces at almost every kebab shop. Germans know better than anyone how to take your d\u00f6ner to the next level with a good hot sauce.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why hot sauce on your d\u00f6ner kebab?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

D\u00f6ner kebab is already a flavor bomb on its own. The roasted meat, fresh vegetables, and that in combination with often delicious garlic sauce. But did you know that a good hot sauce can completely transform your kebab experience? The right spicy sauce not only adds heat but also enhances the flavors of the meat and creates a great contrast with the cool vegetables and any garlic sauce already added.<\/span><\/p>\n
