Tracklements NEW vegan and gluten free Special Edition Chimichurri Chilli Relish

The latest addition to the Tracklements range of artisan condiments is the NEW Special Edition Chimichurri Chilli  Relish. 

A popular, green sauce originating in Argentina and Uruguay, this is a veritable flavour fiesta of coriander, oregano, parsley, garlic and lemon juice. 

And as if that’s not enough, Bird’s Eye Chillies are introduced to get the party started on pretty much everything this cheeky relish touches. 

Traditionalists may say it should be reserved for complementing the richness of churrasco, grilled or barbecued meat, but, in the opinion of those whjo are in the know, it deserves a seat at any table. 

All at once aromatic, herby, citrusy, tart and garlicky with a delicious chilli kick, this versatile relish makes a wonderful and superb addition to a wide variety of dishes, plus it makes an absolutely excellent cooking ingredient and table condiment, too! When does its  goodness end? 

It doesn’t.

Chimichurri Chilli Relish gives an herbaceous kick both spooned on to a BBQ steak or drizzled over chicken, fish and mixed veg (oven or fire prepped). It’s an exciting dipper for a double-fried chunky chip, ideal for loading into a grilled halloumi wrap, and satisfies all lovers of a Sunday roast leftovers sandwich. It also makes an  elaborate foil for ceviche and adds a burst of fresh zesty flavour to sliced tomatoes or liberally spread (don’t be  shy!) on warm bruschetta. 

It won’t be around for long, so get it while it’s hot! 

Back in 1970, William Tullberg made the first British wholegrain mustard. 50 years on William’s son, Guy, carries  on his legacy. However, that one mustard has matured into eight varieties and over 40 delicious award-winning chutneys, relishes and sauces.  

A store cupboard hero for both celebrity chefs and home cooks, the range is still handmade in the green heart of  Wiltshire, abiding to traditional recipes, with an underpinning principle to buy only the best quality ingredients which they only source locally wherever possible to ensure the products taste as good as, if not better than, homemade. 

B Corp accredited Tracklements believe in business as a force for good, protecting the environment as they go.  They’re committed to make the most planet-friendly condiments you can buy minimising their environmental  footprint through using recyclable packaging, their own water treatment facility, and over 10,000 square feet of  solar panels, supplemented by 100% renewable electricity generated by wind and/or hydro assets. And they don’t shy away from wonky veg either! 

Tracklements Special Edition Chimichurri Chilli Relish RRP £4.10 for 170g, is available from fine food delis and  farm shops nationwide and online at www.tracklements.co.uk.

Temperature Rises At Stokes Sauces

Award-winning sauce and preserve company, Stokes Sauces, has announced the launch of a new range of chilli products which will add a hot and spicy kick to mealtimes.

The Suffolk-based food company, which now produces over 100 different lines, has unveiled a range of new chilli products including a Chilli Jam, Chilli Mint Jelly and Chilli Yellow Pepper Jelly.

Packed full of the finest fresh ingredients, the new chilli products are presented in the unmistakable high-quality Stokes bottle and retail at around £3 a jar.

Rick Sheepshanks, managing director of Stokes Sauces, said: "We are truly delighted with the new additions to our brand.

"We launched our Real Tomato Ketchup with chilli back in 2006 and the product was so well received that we decided it was time to expand our range of hot and spicy sauces and preserves."

The new chilli products work particularly well with red meats and provide the perfect cheese board accompaniment, highlighting the flavour of mature cheddars and soft bries.

Rick's own favourite use for it is rather simpler, however:
'The new chilli products make a fantastic cooking ingredient and add a real kick to a pasta sauce - a Spaghetti Bolognese isn't fit for consumption in my house without a great big dollop of chilli jam," he said.

Launched in 2004, Stokes Sauces now produces in excess of over 100 different lines and its produce is widely stocked in farm shops and independent stores throughout the UK.

Leading supermarkets are now also beginning to stock key lines from the Stokes brand.

A Must have foodie stocking filler! Some real hot sauces!

Stuck for ideas for male stocking fillers this year? – Well, here’s a ‘must have’ for every woman to give to a man, and every food loving male to add to his Xmas wish list.
So, add a bit of a kick to Xmas with a unique connoisseur chilli sauce specially chosen by Hot-Headz!, stockists of the largest selection of all things chilli in the UK (www.hot-headz.com). It’s quirky, original, has fantastic novelty value and is something that will be used! In fact we believe a bottle of chilli sauce is THE perfect stocking filler for any discerning male foodie of the species, guaranteed to bring Yuletide cheer and warmth! A perfect ‘secret santa’ gift for the office Xmas party too!

We all know there is a love hate relationship between men and chillies. They can’t resist the temptation of tingling taste buds and yet when they indulge they end up asking themselves ‘why on earth did I do that?’ whilst swilling down gallons of water to kill the heat (big mistake by the way; see the FACTFILE for details!)- and then they go and do it again! It’s all down to the endorphins that chillies make us produce by creating a sense of euphoria, along with a pinch of male bravado no doubt!

And with a bottle of superb provenance chilli sauce from Hot-Headz! typically costing from £3.99 to £6.99, it won’t make a dent in the old wallet. So why not buy a bottle or even a few.

Here are our top five ‘connoisseurs’ recommendations to choose from, gradually moving up the heat scale from ‘beginners mild’ to ‘it’ll blow your head off’ (In addition to the heat, the range of flavours, colours and textures are genuinely quite remarkable and varied, just like with wines, so why not try a few and do a tasting):

1. Tapatio Hot Sauce - This year marks the 40th Anniversary of this Mexican inspired sauce that's found on every table top in bars and restaurants across the USA. A robust cayenne pepper sauce with great flavour and a sweet citrusy tang that's good for all round use. A perfect ‘easy on the heat’ sauce for the chilli novice! Hot-Headz heat rating: 3/10. £3.99 (EDITOR Makes the perfect genuine Mexican/American foods)

2. Brother Bru-Bru's Mild African Pepper Sauce - a mouth watering blend of chilli peppers, garlic and Brother Bru Bru’s rare African spices. Brother Bru Bru is in fact no other than session musician Bruce Langhorne who used to play with Bob Dylan. It's a fact that Dylan wrote Mr.Tambourine Man about Bruce. Yes that's him on the label! Splash it on or in everything! Hot-Headz heat rating: 5/10. £3.99

3. Pyromania! Wanna play with Fire? Made with habanero peppers and chipotle "Chee-Poht-Lay" (smoked jalapeno) peppers for a wonderful rich and smoky hot sauce that's great on everything from eggs and vegetables to fish, meat, rice, pasta and tofu. Getting warmer. Hot-Headz heat rating: 7/10. £3.99

4. Hot-Headz own ‘Who Dares Burns! Crushed Naga Hot Sauce’ - Now we're getting serious! A whopping 65% chilli pepper content gives this all natural sauce a killer heat with fresh, fresh flavour! The Naga Bhut Jolokia is the Guinness Book of World Records holder of the Hottest Chilli in the World. We've skilfully blended these deadly hot chilli peppers with select ingredients to make the tastiest Naga sauce on the market. In skiing parlance, this is definitely black run. Hot-Headz heat rating: 9/10. £3.99

5. Mad Dog 357 - Claiming to be the ‘World's Hottest Sauce’ this is about as hot as you can go without being classed as a food additive. This ‘not for the faint of heart’ sauce has a blend of 160,000 scoville super hot cayenne peppers, fiery hot red habanero peppers and finally a whopping 2,000,000 scoville pepper extract. Totally off-piste! A tongue scorching 357,000 Scoville unit sauce. Hot-Headz heat rating: 11/10.
£7.49 (EDITOR: Ouch, ouch, OUCH!!! This really did burn my tongue and I am not a chilli novice!)

(Collectors Edition with bullet key chain containing tiny tasting spoon! 600,000 Scoville units - £9.95)
