Grown Up Crisps From Walkers - Market Deli Range

Walkers have made crisps and snacks for decades and this summer will see the launch of a new range - Market Deli potato crisps, tortilla chips and pitta chips in eight flavours.
The flavours are combinations of the best of real ingredients from around the world: Mature Cheddar from Cornwall, aged Aceto Balsamico di Modena PGI (balsamic vinegar) and Sundried Tomatoes from the Manisa region in Turkey.

At the launch event we were able to taste the new flavours and also the hero ingredients that influenced these new flavours. Flavours such as Roasted Red Chilli with Mediterranean Sundried Tomato Tortilla Chips, Pitta Chips with Roasted Garlic and Mediterranean Herbs and Flame Grilled Roasted Spanish Chorizo with Roasted Onion flavour Crisps.  These are just a few of the range.

The evening highlight was Michelin Star chef Tom Aikens who introduced us to the flavour profiles used and then treated us to a couple of easy recipes inspired by the ingredients used in the snack range.

 
The snacks are very fresh and crisp and none of the flavours were overpowering instead working together to give your mouth an explosion of flavours and tastes as you chew.
The Pitta Chips are thin and crispy and fresh. The Tortilla Chips are thin and crispy and each bite releases the various flavours.

There were plenty of canapes using the hero ingredients for us along with some lovely wines to accompany them.

Thanks to Walkers for introducing me to their new Market Deli range. This is a sponsored post but all opinions and photos are my own.

  1. I'm a sucker for crisps, although I really prefer them flavoured only with salt! Always nice to try something new though.

    1. Plain crisps are the greatest but now and then I do like flavoured ones and these were especially nice.
