Argentina Mix - Red Meats

What is Argentina Blend?

The Argentina blend has a very specific name. I named it this way to recall the spices that are prized in Argentina and that go perfectly with beef, a star meat in this country. This spice blend is not to be confused with Chimichurri, a typical Argentinean blend. There are Chimichurri Pampeano and Chimichurri Patagonico. My blend is made up of different spices, I have added pepper, paprika and various spices.

What is the flavor of the Argentine blend?

My spice blend has full-bodied notes, not too hot, but spicy. You will appreciate its beautiful aromatic and subtle sweet notes. Between power and sweetness, I propose a spice blend that will offer a real volume of taste to your dishes.

How to use the Argentine blend?

My Argentine blend is for me the special spice blend for meat. Incredible with red meats, it will also accompany poultry.

Our recipe ideas with the Argentine blend

Beef Carpaccio with Argentina Blend

Beef carpaccio is a favorite of true red meat lovers. To get an incredibly thin cut of meat, I recommend that you go to your butcher and ask him to cut it for you. This way, you will be sure to have the best base for your carpaccio. Make a marinade with olive oil, a splash of lemon juice and your Argentine blend. Place your beef pieces in a dish and drizzle with the marinade. Add a little salt and a few shavings of parmesan cheese. Marinate for two hours and serve simply with a ripe tomato.

Argentine Mixed Rib Eye

Let's tackle the main course this time with a generous entrecote. I suggest you simply make the same mixture as before with olive oil and Argentine blend. The lemon is not necessary this time. Add a little fleur de sel and let your meat marinate all day. Take your meat out one hour before eating it. Grill your marinated steak on the barbecue and serve with potatoes cooked in foil in the barbecue coals.

Argentine Blend Chicken Skewers

Because this mix is really ideal for making marinades, we take the same ones and we start again. But this time with chicken for those who are not big fans of red meat. Make your own marinade, this time with lemon, and cut up squares of chicken and pieces of onion and bell pepper. Marinate for a day and make up your skewers by alternating the meat, onion and bell pepper. Put on the barbecue and enjoy with a papillote of vegetables (zucchini, tomatoes, carrots).

Storage of the Argentinean mixture

This mixture is best stored away from light and humidity.
