Chuck Hughes Mild Antipasto is a chunky mixed-vegetable antipasto in oil and vinegar from Montreal chef Chuck Hughes, made in Quebec — no heat, built for grazing boards, steak sangas and eggs. Chuck Hughes built his name on Iron Chef America and behind the pass at Garde Manger and Le Bremner in Old Montreal, and this jar is exactly the kind of big-flavoured, no-fuss condiment he'd have sitting on a grazing board before service even started. It's a proper mixed-vegetable antipasto — sweet peppers, eggplant, cauliflower, olives and more — packed in oil and vinegar with nothing shy about it. Built for people who want their cheese board to do more than sit there looking pretty.
Front is tangy vinegar and canola oil carrying a proper hit of garlic. Mid palate you get the full vegetable medley doing its thing — sweet peppers and eggplant softening into cauliflower, carrot and celery crunch, with olives, capers and fennel adding salty, aniseed edges. Finish is savoury and mild, no heat to speak of, just clean vegetable and spice.
Expect a rustic, chunky mix — visible pieces of pepper, eggplant, cauliflower and olive suspended in a light golden oil and vinegar dressing. Not smooth, not a puree — this is a scoop-and-serve texture, not a spread.
Ingredients: Mixed vegetables (sweet peppers, eggplant, cauliflower, celery, carrots, olives, cucumbers, onions, fennel, capers, green tomatoes), Canola oil, Spices, Minced dehydrated garlic, Salt, Vinegar, Sulphites, Calcium chloride.
Dietary: Vegan, gluten free and kosher (COR certified). Contains sulphites. May contain olive pit fragments. Always check the physical label for the most accurate ingredient and allergen information.
Eleven veg in one jar, all tang and crunch with zero heat, and it makes a grazing board look like you planned it. My favourite job for it is a steak sanga: rump dusted with Butchers Axe Bullseye Beef, seared hard, sliced thin, then a big spoon of this on top. Put a wedge of cheese and Tracklements Quince Paste on the side and call it lunch.

Why it works: The vinegar in the antipasto cuts the beef fat, so the sanga never eats heavy.
Not spicy at all — this is the no-heat option, all tang and vegetable crunch, no burn.
Cheese boards, grazing platters, grilled fish, steak sandwiches, or straight over eggs and pizza.
