THE LOLA'S STORY

The Lola's story is a classic American immigrant story. My mother is from the Philippines and my father from Pakistan. Both came to the US in the 70's to serve as doctors; one for farmers in rural Iowa, and the other in the armed forces .

I was fortunate to grow up in a family of excellent cooks. Spicy foods, and sauces in particular, were a big part of our food growing up. I knew our homemade sauce was great but didn’t think much of it, until one day I took some to work on a whim for a company potluck and wowed all my coworkers with it.

We've grown a lot since then, but ultimately Lola's is the story of a kid who loved his family's home cooking so much that he needed to share it with the world.

Lola's Fine Sauces

FAMILY RECIPES

My family is full excellent cooks. Growing up in the Philippines, my mother used local produce to make fresh sauces and salsas. When mom and dad immigrated to rural Iowa, she continued make those same homemade sauces with local peppers from Iowa farmers along with new recipes she learned from her new family and neighbors. The original Lola's signature flavor is still the base of most of our recipes.

The hot sauce that started it all, passed down from generation to generation. Lola’s Original Hot Sauce – a blend of red jalapenos, habanero peppers, garlic, and a kiss of lime to deliver a delightfully sweet, smokey, not-too-hot hot sauce. Try this on anything!
