Terre Exotique Chimichurri Pampeano Spice Blend 35g

Argentinian chimichurri mix suitable for marinating or making into sauce.

The name "chimichurri" is said to have come from a Scottish man named James C. Hurray, who was an importer of meat in Argentina. He was fond of curry and would import it from India. His cooks, who loved his spice, would constantly ask him, in approximate English, "chi me churri" meaning "give me curry!"

Chimichurri Pampeano is a blend of herbs and spices that includes parsley, garlic, oregano, coriander, salt, and chili. It is used in Argentina as a base for marinade or as an accompaniment sauce for meats cooked during impromptu gatherings called "asados."

To prepare chimichurri sauce, simply mix two tablespoons of chimichurri with olive oil, white balsamic vinegar, or lemon juice according to your preference.
