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.

Get creative in your kitchen. Make your own condiments, sauces, and more

In the realm of culinary adventures, there's something uniquely satisfying about crafting your own condiments and sauces. 

Not only does this allow you to tailor flavours to your exact preferences, but it also opens up a world of creativity in the kitchen. From tangy mustard to zesty salsa, the possibilities are endless when you take the DIY route. Let's dive into some exciting DIY kitchen projects that will elevate your dishes to new heights.

Homemade Mustard: A Tangy Triumph

Mustard is a staple condiment that adds a punch of flavour to sandwiches, dressings, marinades and more. 

Making your own mustard is surprisingly simple and allows you to experiment with various flavours and spice levels. Start with a base of mustard seeds, vinegar, and water, then customise with ingredients such as honey, garlic, herbs, or spices to create your own signature blend. Whether you prefer a classic yellow mustard or a spicy Dijon, homemade mustard is sure to impress.

Salsa Fresca: Fresh Flavurs in Every Bite

There's nothing quite like the vibrant flavours of homemade salsa fresca. Made with ripe tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, cilantro, and lime juice, this versatile condiment adds a burst of freshness to tacos, nachos, grilled meats, and more. 

Experiment with different types of tomatoes, peppers, and herbs to find the perfect balance of sweetness, heat, and acidity. With just a few simple ingredients, you can whip up a batch of salsa that rivals your favorite restaurant's.

Infused Oils and Vinegars: A Gourmet Touch

Infused oils and vinegars are an easy way to add depth and complexity to your dishes. Start by selecting high-quality oils and vinegars as your base, then infuse them with herbs, spices, fruits, or aromatics of your choice. 

For infused oils, try combinations like rosemary and garlic, chili and lime, or lemon and thyme. For vinegars, experiment with flavours like raspberry and basil, fig and balsamic, or orange and ginger. Use these infused oils and vinegars in dressings, marinades, or simply drizzle them over roasted vegetables or salads for a special gourmet touch.

Homemade BBQ Sauce: Sweet, Smoky, and Irresistible

No back garden barbecue is complete without a tangy, smoky BBQ sauce to slather on ribs, chicken, or pulled pork. While shop-bought options abound, making your own BBQ sauce allows you to control the sweetness, spice, and depth of flavour. 

Start with a base of ketchup, vinegar, and molasses, then customise with ingredients like brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and smoked paprika.Your homemade BBQ sauce is sure to take your grilling game to the next level.

DIY Pickles: Crunchy, Tangy, and Totally Addictive

There's something irresistible about a crisp, tangy pickle, and making your own at home is easier than you might think. Start with fresh cucumbers and a simple brine of water, vinegar, salt, and spices, then let time work its magic as the flavors meld together. Experiment with different types of cucumbers, brine ratios, and flavorings like dill, garlic, or chili flakes to create your perfect pickle recipe. Enjoy them straight from the jar, sliced on sandwiches, or chopped into salads for a burst of flavor and crunch.

You can also buy special picking onions and make your own pickled onions, too. 

Conclusion: Unleash Your Creativity in the Kitchen

Embarking on DIY kitchen projects like making your own condiments, sauces, and more is not only a fun and rewarding endeavor but also a delicious way to elevate your culinary creations. Whether you're experimenting with new flavors, customising recipes to suit your tastes, or simply enjoying the satisfaction of creating something from scratch, the possibilities are endless. So roll up your sleeves, stock your pantry with ingredients, and let your creativity run wild in the kitchen. Your taste buds and your family members and friends will thank you for it.
