Mediterranean food brand, unearthed, has entered the premium chilled savoury pastry category with a range of four new products and flavours. The food brand hopes to build on its deli and antipasti offering through combining the British pastry with Mediterranean ingredients. Designed around Spanish flavour, the Manchego and Serrano Rolls are packed full of outdoor-bred pork, Serrano ham, Manchego cheese and finished with a cheese and parsley crumb. The second roll in the range, Spicy ‘Nduja, brings a touch of heat with its blend of Calabrian flavours, containing outdoor-bred pork, spicy ‘Nduja sausage and Fireroasted™ peppers, hand finished with a fennel seed sprinkle. Joining the rolls are two authentic mini empanadas recipes, thinly rolled all butter pastry parcels that are packed full of flavour and draw on South American and Spanish influences. The Chicken and Chorizo Mini Empanadas are filled with slow cooked chicken and chorizo in a sundried tomato and smoked paprika sauce and topped with a nigella seed and paprika sprinkle. The Smoky Beef Mini Empanadas are stuffed with beef and sweetcorn in a sundried tomato and harissa sauce and completed with a paprika and fennel seed sprinkle.
