What was the Chilean condiment chosen as ‘the best in the world’, according to a prominent world ranking?

This is the well-known brand of merkén that must be withdrawn from the market in Chile due to the detection of toxins, according to the Minsal

Chilean cuisine has once again stood out on the international stage thanks to the merkena traditional Mapuche dressing that has been recognized as the best condiment in the world by the prestigious culinary guide Taste Atlas. This recognition places merkén in first place in the ranking that includes the 36 best spice mixes globally, highlighting its unique flavor and versatility in Chilean gastronomy.

What is the merken?

The merkén is a seasoning of Mapuche origin made mainly with smoked dried goat cacho chili, to which other ingredients such as smoked coriander seeds and sea salt are added. Its flavor is characterized by being rich and earthy, with a smoky touch that, although slightly spicy, is more predominant due to its depth and versatility. This mixture is used in a wide variety of preparations in Chile, from meats to sauces such as pebre, and even on pizzas or in sandwiches such as maní merkén, a roasted peanut seasoned with this spice.
