Colombian Citrus & Chilli Churrasco (medium) 7/10
‘I’m not a fan of creamy sauces in general so was a bit sceptical when faced with this very creamy sauce. I was delighted to find it didn’t taste especially creamy – the taut, tangy citrus taste is definitely in the ascendant here. I used it as a base for chicken stir-fry, adding red and yellow peppers, chopped green beans, diced tomatoes, onions and a small can of pineapple for a more piquant taste. Delicious! ’ Marie
Chilean Tomato Chilli & Lime Escabeche (hot) 4/10
‘I couldn’t resist dipping into the sauce before I cooked, but was a bit put off by the weird chemical taste. But I persevered and cooked it with thin slices of pork, which I’d stir-fried with green peppers and onion. Once cooked, it still had that strange shampoo-y taste (very limey, which was weird, given that at just 0.03% the lime oil was the last thing on the ingredients list), but it was really spicy, which I loved. I’m usually quite disappointed by spicy sauces, but this had a really powerful kick. ’ Craig
Argentinian Orange & Chilli Churrasco (medium) 8/10
‘What I loved most about this typical Argentinian sauce was the rich, almost sweet-and-sour taste of the oranges combined with the rather hot and spicy chilli flavour. A great combo with roasted vegetables. I normally prepare my own sauces, but I was very satisfied with this fresh and zingy jarful – and I particularly liked the hotness. All this and just 0.4g fat per 100g! ’ Emily
