The joys of the legendary Sunday roast

 

Roast chicken is the most traditional of all family Sunday lunches! This mix made from paprika, thyme, rosemary, Cayenne pepper and garlic will sublime your poultry, white meat or roast potatoes. In summer, add it to your marinades or on your grilled meat.

 

The paprika in this mix comes from the Zitava region in Slovakia. Its botanical name Capsicum annuum is part of the Solanaceae family like bell peppers and chilli peppers. It has been cultivated in Slovakia using traditional methods for over 100 years. Paprika, is a mild chilli pepper from Colombia and the Southern states of the United States.

 

Thyme, whose botanical name is Thymus vulgaris, is an aromatic herb emblematic of Mediterranean cuisine. This perennial plant is part of the Lamiaceae family like oregano or mint. It grows naturally in Southern Europe, and thrives in a warm, sunny and dry climate, releasing strong full-bodied aromas.

 

Rosemary whose name comes from the Latin Rosmarinus means sea dew. Rosemary or Rosmarinus officinalis grows naturally as a bush all around the Mediterranean. This rosemary is grown on steppes in Crete, in compliance with organic farming specifications, on mountains and hills overlooking the sea. It is then dried in traditional driers, which dry with the wind.

 

Cayenne chilli pepper is one of the strongest chilli peppers in the world. This red chilli pepper is also called Pili-pili and is harvested in Uganda (“the Pearl of Africa”).

Its scientific name is Capsicum frutescens and is part of the Solanaceae family, like paprika. It is also grown in Madagascar, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zanzibar.

Where does this roast chicken mix come from?

 

The story behind the legendary Sunday roast

 

Did you know that roast chicken is the French nation’s favourite dish?

 

The story behind this traditional dish dates back as far as King Henri IV. Legend has it that after a day’s hunting, King Henri IV returned home starving and requested that a chicken be cooked immediately. When he tasted it he declared “It is my desire that every labourer in my realm should be able to put a fowl in the pot on Sundays”. Over time, this poule au pot was directly grilled on the fireplace which is what later became our beloved roast chicken.

 

In the 19th century, Napoleon’s cooks always had several chickens roasting in the ovens to ensure that there would always be one ready for the Emperor should he so desire. Today, roast chicken is a traditional homely dish, but which is also served in gastronomic restaurants in Paris.
