HOW TO PREPARE THE AUTHENTIC “Chimarrão” GAÚCHO

• First, to prepare the authentic gaucho mate (chimarrão) we need: a kettle, a bowl (a cup made from gourd, called cuia) and a pump, the mate (a special kind of green tea from South América), water and some stove to heat the water.

• Having checked all the instruments to prepare the mate put the water to warm up, fill the bowl around two-thirds full of herb (mate).

• Then with the palm of the hand plugging the hole in the bowl, turn the cuia back to around 45 to the vertical until the mate takes up half of it. When this occurs slowly remove your hand from the bowl being careful not to collapse the mate hill.

• With sloping fill it to the edge of water, and wait for the mate to absorb all the water. Some gauchos repeat the process 2 times.

• Place the pump in the bowl (the pump and the bowl should be parallel). This should be done with the nozzle capped. You can now hold the nozzle.
