Everyone's favourite - the traditional and inseperable flavours of salt and vinegar

It's not only our mix of cultures that's made us the rainbow nation, it's our mix of food too. The Portuguese gave us their unique way of spicing up chicken - and today it's part of our cultural melting pot! For the authentic taste of Portugal, brush chicken (whole, spatchcocked or pieces) with oil and sprinkle generously with seasoning, then grill, braai or bake. Great on other meats and seafood too.

Use thyme to add a strong and fresh aroma to many dishes.
