Argentinian Chimichurri Steak (Asado)
Grass-fed beef grilled over high heat, sliced and drowned in vivid, herby chimichurri sauce — Argentina's asado at home.
Asado, chimichurri, empanadas – pampaların barbekü kültürü.
Arjantin mutfağı, gaucho sığır kültürünün sığır etinin ulusal kimliğe dönüştüğü Pampas otlaklarında şekillendi. Parrilla üzerinde odun közleri üzerinde yavaş yavaş ızgara yapma ritüeli olan asado, chorizo ve morcilla sosisleri, tatlı ekmekler (mollejalar), kısa kaburgalar (asado de tira) ve yan kesimler üzerinden çalışarak, yalnızca tuzla tatlandırılmış ve maydanoz, sarımsak, kekik ve sirkeden oluşan chimichurri ile tamamlanarak ülkenin belirleyici sosyal etkinliği olmaya devam ediyor. Arjantin uzun süredir dünyanın kişi başına en yüksek sığır eti tüketicisi arasında yer alıyor.
1880 ile 1930 yılları arasındaki yoğun İtalyan ve İspanyol göçü günlük beslenmeyi yeniden şekillendirdi. İtalyanlar milanesa ekmekli pirzola, pazar günleri taze makarna, her ayın 29'unda ñoquis ve Napoli'nin aksine Buenos Aires'in kalın kabuklu soğan ve peynirli pizzası olan fugazzeta'ya katkıda bulundular. İspanyollar, son derece bölgesel biçimlere dönüşen empanada'yı getirdiler: Salta'da sulu elle kesilmiş sığır eti, Tucumán'da kuru üzüm ve zeytinli daha tatlı versiyonlar. Kuzey, vatanseverlik bayramlarında yenen bir hominy ve kabak güveci olan locro gibi And yemeklerini paylaşıyor.
Ev hayatı yerba mate ile devam ediyor, acı kafeinli infüzyon bir bombilla pipetinden yudumlanarak bir daire şeklinde geçiriliyor - içecekten çok sosyal bir ritüel. Dulce de leche, sütlü karamel, alfajores kurabiyelerini, hamur işlerini ve kahvaltılık tostları doldurur. Pazar günleri asado veya geniş aileyle yapılan makarna, haftanın yapısal yemeği olmaya devam ediyor ve Mendoza'dan Malbec, sığır etinin varsayılan eşlikçisi.
Asado ve Parrilla
Sığır eti parçalarının, sosislerin ve sakatatların odun közünde yavaş yavaş ızgarada pişirilmesi, yalnızca tuz ve sabırla tatlandırılan ulusal bir ritüeldir.
Chimichurri
Maydanoz, sarımsak, kekik, sirke ve yağ sosu, asado'nun temel çeşnisidir ve marine edilmek yerine ızgara etlerin üzerine kaşıklanır.
Empanada'lar
Fırında veya kızartılmış dolgulu hamur işleri eyaletlere göre değişir: Salta'nın elle kesilmiş patatesli dana eti, Tucumán'ın kuru üzümlü ve zeytinli.
İtalyan Mirası
Milanesas, taze makarna, ñoquis del 29 ve kalın hamurlu fugazzeta pizza, kitlesel İtalyan göçüyle birlikte geldi ve ulusal temel yiyecekler haline geldi.
Dulce de Leche
Yavaş pişirilmiş sütlü karamel, başka yerlerde eşi benzeri olmayan miktarlarda tüketilen alfajore'leri, facturas hamur işlerini ve tatlıları doldurur.
Yerba Mate
Bir sukabağından bombilla ile yudumlanan paylaşılan acı infüzyon, kahvaltıdan itibaren sosyal hayatı yapılandırır.

Arjantin her şeyden önce sığır etiyle tanınır; odun közünde ızgarada pişirilen asado barbeküsü, bife de chorizo gibi biftekler ve chimichurri sosu. Sığır etinin ötesinde empanadalar, milanesa pirzolaları, dulce de leche, alfajores kurabiyeleri ve yerba mate imzalarıdır. Yoğun İtalyan göçü aynı zamanda makarna, ñoquis ve kendine özgü kalın hamurlu pizzayı da ulusal beslenmenin bir parçası haline getirdi.
Asado, etleri sert ağaç közleri üzerinde (doğrudan alev veya duman odaları değil) yavaşça ızgara yapıyor, sadece kaba tuzla tatlandırılıyor - pişirme sırasında sürtünme yok, sos yok. Bu, sosisler, sakatatlar ve asado de tira gibi kesimlerle ilerleyen, birkaç saat süren bir sosyal etkinliktir. Amerikan barbeküsü etleri ovma ve soslarla tütsülüyor; Asado'nun tek çeşnisi chimichurri masaya eklenir.
Hayır, Latin Amerika'nın en az baharatlı mutfaklarından biri. Baharat tuz, sarımsak, maydanoz, kekik ve kırmızı bibere dayanır; chimichurri'nin keskin ve bitki tadı vardır ancak neredeyse hiç ısısı yoktur. Empanada dolgularında bile kırmızı biber yerine tatlı kırmızı biber ve kimyon kullanılır. Baharata duyarlı olan herkes Arjantin repertuarının tamamını rahatlıkla yiyebilir.
Chimichurri beş dakika sürüyor ve her türlü ızgara bifteği dönüştürüyor. Milanesas - panelenmiş, kızartılmış dana eti veya tavuk pirzolası - hafta içi basittir, genellikle milanesa napolitana gibi domates ve peynirle doldurulur. Fırında dana eti empanadaları, mağazadan satın alınan hamur diskleri (tapas) ile tatmin edici bir hafta sonu projesidir. Dulce de leche'li Alfajores, gelişmiş hamur işi becerisine sahip olmayan tatlıyı kapsar.
Yerba mate, Ilex paraguariensis bitkisinin kafeinli bir infüzyonudur ve su kabağından (mate) filtrelenmiş metal bir pipet (bombilla) aracılığıyla sıcak olarak içilir. Bir kişi, cebador, kabağı sıcak suyla doldurur - asla kaynamayan, yaklaşık 70-80°C - ve onu bir dairenin etrafından geçirir; Her içen, yeniden doldurulmadan önce kabağı bitirir. Çimenli, acı ve içki kadar sosyal bir ritüel.
