I’ve been lucky enough to travel to Argentina where they have incredible people, Asados (like a BBQ, but way better), and weddings that go til dawn. My understanding is that chimichurri, a classic Argentinian green sauce, is a bit like marinara—same base elements but served slightly different in every house. I’ve settled on this variation, but I don’t think I ever make it the exact same way twice. Sometimes I have cilantro on hand. Sometimes I want some more kick and add a pinch of red pepper flakes. Parsely, garlic, and red wine vinegar are musts though.
