Description
Green seasoning is a versatile, fresh herb and aromatic paste or sauce that is a cornerstone of Caribbean cuisine, used as a marinade and flavor base for a wide variety of dishes. Recipes vary by household and island, but core ingredients generally include a blend of fresh herbs, onions, garlic, and peppers.
Common Ingredients
The exact composition is highly personal, but typical ingredients found in Caribbean green seasoning include:
-
- Herbs: Culantro (known locally as shado beni or bandhania), parsley, thyme, basil, and scallions (green onions) are most common.
- Aromatics:Â Onion, generous amounts of garlic, and sometimes fresh ginger.
- Peppers:
 Pimento peppers (for flavor without intense heat), Scotch bonnet, or habanero peppers (for a spicy kick)
Other: Celery stalks or leaves, and sometimes lemon or lime juice or vinegar to aid blending and preservation.
How to Use Green Seasoning
This powerful blend is used in numerous ways to add depth and “oomph” to food:Â
- Marinade:Â The primary use is as a marinade for meats, seafood, or tofu, often left to marinate overnight for maximum flavor penetration.
- Cooking Base:Â A tablespoon or two is often added at the beginning of cooking stews, curries, soups, and rice dishes to build a robust flavor foundation.
- Finishing Touch: It can be stirred into cooked grains like couscous or rice or whisked with olive oil for a quick salad dressing.
Storage
Green seasoning can be stored for convenience:
- Refrigerator:Â Keeps for up to one to two weeks in an airtight glass jar.
- Freezer:Â For longer preservation, freeze the seasoning in small portions, such as ice cube trays, and then transfer the cubes to a freezer bag.Â
