It is a tea made from the dried leaves of the “yerba maté” plant. Most typically, it is made in, and then drunk from, a receptacle made from the husk of a small gourd, itself called a maté. These can also be made of other materials such as wood, china or bone. The maté is drunk through a type of metal straw with a perforated bulbous end called a “bombilla”. Maté is a stimulant, contains various nutrients, and is held to be good for the digestion. It was drunk by the Guarani Indians long before the Spanish conquest. The conquistadors took to the habit, and also developed it as a commercial crop. Drinking maté is an everyday habit today for the majority of people from all social classes in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay, and it is felt by many to be an essential part of being from the River Plate region.* * *I adj mattII m1 en ajedrez mate2 L.Am.

Any occasion is a good excuse - birthdays, wedding anniversaries, public holidays and even an ordinary Sunday will do. An asado is a meal for family and/or friends, at midday or in the evening, where the main dish is beef roasted outdoors on a barbecue. This can be served with potatoes, red peppers, cheese or chicken, and various types of sausages and offal, all cooked on the barbecue. The wood used in the fire gives a unique and unmistakable flavour to the food. It takes some time to get the food ready, so the guests at an asado will have plenty of time to chat and socialize over drinks by the fire.* * *I adj roast atrII m1 roast* * *asado, -da adj: roasted, grilled, broiledasado nm1) : roast2) : barbecued meat3) : barbecue, cookout* * *asado adj1.
