Chimichurri Pampeano | 25g

Terre Exotique’s Chimichurri Pampeano brings together the herbs and chilli of Argentina’s classic barbecue sauce in a 25g tin: parsley, oregano, coriander and hot chilli pepper, with salt. Parsley and coriander give a fresh, green flavour, and oregano adds earthiness. The chilli brings a slight, lingering heat, so the blend is herby and lightly spicy rather than fiery. The blend comes from Terre Exotique, the French spice house founded by Erwann de Kerros, a traveller from Brittany. The company works directly with growers and packs its blends in metal tins or glass jars, which keep out light and protect the aroma between uses. It makes a ready chimichurri sauce, a marinade or a finishing seasoning for grilled meat, in the tradition of the Argentinian asado.
