Sanchon Organic Spreads
In many German households bread is served three times a day. For breakfast, as a snack for in between and for dinner. But not only in Germany is bread the most important staple food. In almost every country, where no rice is grown, people bake bread. The bread-countries can be roughly divided into two camps: those who cut the bread and the ones who break it. In Northern and Central Europe brown bread is very popular. It is firm, has a relatively hard crust and needs to be chewed for a relatively long time. In return, it is very filling and the one feels satiated for a long time. Because of its firmness, the bread is usually cut into slices before eating. And since it is not that easy to cut the slices evenly with a knife, many households own a bread slicer. In the Mediterranean and Oriental cuisine such an apparatusis not necessary. There, usually flatbread is served to every meal. The flatbread is standing on the table at the beginning of the meal, is broken by hand into pieces and distributed to the guests. In the Orient, this is traditionally the task of the host or the eldest person at the table. Only afterwards one is allowed to start.
Brown bread and flatbread not only differ in the way they are being chopped into smaller pieces. Bread cut in slices, on the one hand, usually comes with a topping or a spread. Flatbreads, on the other hand, are more often dipped (into particular dips or even in a whole pot of stew). Sweet spreads such as honey or jam are only partly suitable for dipping. In comparison many savory dips are also tasty spreads, such as hummus. It consists of mashed chickpeas and is an integral part of the oriental cuisine. Depending on the recipe, hummus can be mixed with sesame, fruity tomatoes or hot chilli and, thus, fits perfectly to toasted flatbread. Liptauer can also be a spicy dip or spread. This specialty of the Slovak cuisine gets its characteristic flavor from cream cheese made of sheep's milk. Hearty spreads such as Liptauer developed over time probably from spicy sauces such as pesto or salsa. The basis of these sauces were vegetables that could be preserved due to the addition of oil or vinegar. For a creamier texture and a unique flavor spices, herbs, nuts, or cheese are also often added. Spreads and dips are known in all international cuisines. What the guacamole is in the Mexican cuisine, the Obatzer is for the Bavarians.
The secret of Sanchon are individualized seasoning ideas from all of the world's cuisines. The inventors of the vegan Worcestershire sauce have been combining traditional ingredients with inventive approaches for a long time. In addition to their legendary BBQ and seasoning sauces, Sanchon is also known for their curry pastes and special spreads. The brand Sanchon was launched in the mid-1990s by Matthias Rebentisch and Christof Henne. As logo, the two friends chose a black donkey that has been decorating the lid ever since. Donkeys are commonly known as rather headstrong as well as sweet-tempered animals. Sancho Panza, the companion of Don Quixote, took choose a donkey as means of transportation. And since Matthias has two Catalan giant donkeys as pets and Christof likes reading Don Quixote, Sancho Panza and his donkey not only inspired the logo, but also the name „Sanchon“.
Sanchon's sandwich spreads are inspired by international, creative cuisine. A wide range of flavours brings an enormous variety of tastes to your bread.
