Versatile Caribbean Green Seasoning is the perfect sauce to have on hand, it is so easy to prepare at home, made with a blend of fresh herbs and vegetables. Great for stews, sauces, curries, soups or use as a marinade.
Green Seasoning Ingredients
Cilantro – I used culantro also called shado beni, recao or bandhania, a cousin of cilantro that is sold in the Caribbean, Asian or Hispanic supermarkets.
Parsley
Celery
Green Onion
Garlic
Onion
Ginger
Thyme
Scotch Bonnet Pepper – You can substitute with milder and super flavorful Caribbean peppers called pimiento and aji dulce, they have the flavor of Scotch bonnet pepper without the heat. They are found in Caribbean supermarkets. If you can’t find any of these peppers then substitute with 1 bell pepper.
Other optional herbs to include – basil, oregano, and rosemary. Spanish
Caribbean Green seasoning is a powerhouse of blended herbs that taste better than store bought green seasoning, I love DIY seasoning blends, they take your recipes to another level, whether its dry seasoning blends or fresh.
