authentic chimichurri (uruguay & argentina)

How can I be so sure that THIS chimichurri is an authentic recipe? Simple. I asked my dad who is Uruguayan born and raised for the first 40 something years of his life, and one of the best cooks I know. He is sharing HIS recipe for chimichurri that he grew up with — and that I grew up with — for you. A version from way back in his time of 1935… and you can’t get any more authentic than that!
Now, every time I see a chimichurri recipe on the internet, I cringe a little. Not because they’re loaded with ‘wrong ingredients’, but because they’re processed to an all out puree in blenders and food processors. What is supposed to be a loose, oil based condiment becomes a herbed mash, which is more like eating baby food with your churrasco, rather than a beautiful silky condiment that drips over your steak or chicken or fish.
