Ideas, recipes and news from Tantie Lorraine's, published on the brand's Instagram.
Some posts mention the brand's products and events in the UK that are not yet available in Portugal. In Portugal, the range starts with the four chilli jams shown in Products.
We are often asked which dishes go with Tantie Lorraine sauces. The answer is simple: almost everything. We have put together five practical ideas to add flavour to everyday meals, from eggs to sandwiches, grilled meats and snacks. Which is your favourite?
View on InstagramIt was a customer who told us they ate Lime Pepper Relish with cheese. At first we were surprised. Then we remembered the traditional “cheese paste” of Trinidad and Tobago, tried it and were won over. The acidity of the lime and the heat balance the creaminess of the cheese. We usually serve it with fish, but this has become one of our favourite suggestions.
View on InstagramIf the Scotch Bonnet jelly is no longer enough, the Scorpion and Ghost chilli jellies are the favourites of true heat lovers. Use them like any chilli jam: with cheese, meat, marinades or sandwiches, for an extra kick.
View on InstagramTo celebrate Notting Hill Carnival, we recreated a Trinidadian street food classic, “shark and bake”, as a chicken burger. It comes with cucumber chutney, tamarind sauce, Mayaro Pepper Sauce and Red Pepper Chilli Lime. It is also excellent with fish or with any of our chilli jellies. For more heat, try the Scotch Bonnet.
View on InstagramMayaro Pepper Sauce was launched last year and quickly became one of our customers' favourites. Now it has also been recognised at the Great Taste Awards, one of the most respected awards in the British food industry. Made with mango, coriander and Scotch Bonnet chilli, it is a fresh, vibrant green sauce, suitable for vegans and free from artificial preservatives. Its name honours Mayaro, the village in Trinidad where the founder grew up.
