#GreenSeasoning #TriniSeasoning #CaribbeanSeasoning
Did not read all the comments but being a private chef for hire and from trinidad, currently living in New York, I personally use white vinegar, a little salt and pepper as well as minimal water when making my green seasoning. This is just me, I learnt from my grandmother how to cook and everything associated with cooking. Also I prefer making my homemade green seasoning a bit chunky, not watery and when applying to meats, i use a little olive or vegetable oil to the seasoning I'm using for whatever meat/protein I'm seasoning. Love your you tube channel by the way. Just saying, this is my way, not trying to say it's the right way, want to make that perfectly clear for the haters/trolls. Great job guys!
Yes i prefer mine chunky as well Ive actually never had any green seasoning that wasn’t nice and thick
I do it the same way. Vinegar and oil. And less water. I use celery also cause it has so much flavor.
🌸 same as my mom’s recipe except instead of mineral water she used lemon & lime mixture with white vinegar
Yes, that's the way my granny thought me too.
How much vinegar do you add?
Love how you give all the different names of the herbs. This has tripped me up when I was a beginner. Since caribbean food isnt a cuisine Im too familiar with cooking, its also nice how you described how some of the ingredients would be better with different dishes. Great content. 👍
When I lived in Thailand, shadow beni is everywhere in the markets and it is called pak chee farang (which translates to foreign cilantro)
I use all the ingredients except for the Spanish Thyme, which I use fresh. I also add green Bell peppers to the mix. I do not add water to my green seasoning. The celery spring its own water. I use lots of garlic and ginger which preserves the life of the green seasoning. It can last up to (6) month in the refrigerator.
That's awesome !!!!
Shadow beni also known as recao , Spanish thyme (broad leaf) also known as Indian borage, Mexican mint , cuban oregano.
Shadow Beni is also a varaition of Cilantro.
The Spanish Thyme broad Leave is also knows as Oregano Orejón in Spain and Some areas in South America. The Shado Beni, Chadon Beni, Culantro also known as Cilantto de monte, culantro o recao.
Yes correct we in Puerto Rico call it Recao' it's in every thing we make
I normally smuggle the ingredients back to 🇬🇧 with me and I make seasoning to last at least a year. I put lemon/lime juice instead of water to act as preservative 😊
Me too!
You can also portion it out into ice trays and freeze it.
@@AnilSookdeo Great advice thank you King🙏
I don't know if it needs a preservative ..this thing lasts for months and months without going bad...I'm sure I've had some over a year...it was only dried down but was fine
🌸 I’ve been too afraid to do that so I bought seeds off internet and I did it once warmer indoors
It was only way it would grow lol
Thank you for a great video showing authentic Green Seasoning. I live in the UK and I used to use the bottle Green seasoning, but there's too many chemicals in it. I did actually buy the Thai parsley online a year ago. Thank you for the recommending an alternative for Pimento peppers here in the UK. Merry Christmas :)
In the US, I've heard that you can substitute pimento for aji dulce peppers. Looks like a small green scotch bonnet.
You can get plenty pimento in Brooklyn. I also add salt to my green seasoning.
We have an abundance of pimento pepper in brooklyn 😂😂😂
We sure do 😃
Yes you are right about Thai Parsley ! I decided to go to the Chinese supermarket one day and look for Shadow Benu I saw it under the name thai parsley. I was so happy
Yes, that’s how it’s labelled in the UK.
@@janellewilliams9284 yes! that’s where I’m from. So happy I found it
Kezzianne and Dev passing pepper or pepper sauce from one person to another is forbidden even in Grenada growing up as a child. It is not a Trinidad thing but for Grenadians too. Older folks used to tell us if you pass pepper from one person to another you will never agree again. My Trinidad friends in the UK used to tell me so too. Love to see the real thing boi, I make mines too with the pimento padron as you can't always get the real pimento if you're living in the countryside of the UK. I have grown my own Scotch Bonnet pepper this year in my garden guys. Thanks again guys, stay safe. Shalom 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Also in 🇬🇾, they say you would quarrel bad.😆
So how do u give pepper to someone else ?
I never hear that saying before never !
@@beauty3268 Put it down on the table, counter or in a bag or bowl.
My Grandma told us the same thing, except it was for chillies.
If someone gifted u chillies,
we had to give a payment in kindness- any coins/ $. As little as 5c to as much as $5😀 Amazing how almost everything seems to connect amongst us World people in one way or another💕
Using spoon is also very easy to peel ginger
Oh yum! We have a fairly new Trinidadian restaurant where I live and I've loved this stuff since I first tried it. Thanks for the great tutorial!
We In Puerto Rico and the Caribbean call it RECAO' ITS A STAPLE IN EVERY DISH WE MAKE AS WELL .... ITS PART OF THE ISLANDS CULTURE
I live in the US and it is so very difficult to find some of these ingredients but I find them LOL. However I love green seasoning I would use this on everything I I could
Finding broad leaf time is the worst. If there is a Spanish market nearby you can find shadow Benny if you ask for "recao"
Check Whole Foods - you'd be surprised. Also, if you could get to an area with a large Caribbean / Spanish-speaking population the supermarkets may carry some products.
@@gabriellabruno182 "culantro"
H Mart which is a Koren farmers market is the place to find them or any Indian farmers market.
Nyc and Florida would most likely have everything
“Inhales, ahhh” lol good job guys I could smell it from here. Kez went crazy with the tiny blender man lol, I could do with mines a bit thicker less but I’m sure that will taste good.
I live in fort Myers fl so I do not get pimentos, I use mini sweet peppers and it gives my seasoning a nice flavor.
I always add salt to my green seasoning. What’s your perspective on this as I noticed you didn’t use any?
Hi Rae
I don’t normally add salt in my green seasoning because I don’t store it, I just make it fresh everytime I’m cooking. When I marinate proteins, in the green seasoning, I leave out salt to ensure the moisture content in the protein doesn’t seep out. I add salt when the proteins go into the pot/pan/tray, right at the start of the cooking process. This gives me the best result in terms of making sure my protein is moist and tender.
But listen; if you’re used to adding salt, and it works for you, go right ahead!
Thanks for watching!
@@devramjit2593 you have given me food for thought. I am always open to trying different approaches. I too only make enough to use immediately. I will try your approach when marinating my proteins. Thank you.
I also add salt if I'm saving some and transferring it into a glass jar I'm going to start freezing some of it so it can last longer make some to last me 6 months or so
Hi guys! I watched & enjoyed your show before..but I did not comment then..I have been making green seasonings for a long time..
I use a quisinart food processor..so I don't have to add any water..but I add a little bit of olive oil😊Thank you for sharing 🥰 I forgot to mention that I live in Ontario 🇨🇦
and I grow pimento peppers
& all the other seasonings..
even the "bandhania" or
shado beni only in the summer time..❤🥰
Good stuff👏. I'm always looking to update my recipe!
Thanks soooo much for clarifying what it's called in UK sooo hard to get things like shadon beni, golden ray and dasheen in UK!! respect 🔥🔥💯💯🇹🇹🇹🇹
We usually add brown onions and my mom has used white vinegar in the past. Is that ok?
I have a hard time finding pimento pepper up here. I'll look for the alternative you used.
Is it advisable to add vinegar if you doing a large batch to store in the refrigerator?
Hello kezzianne and Dev, always love watching you guys, green seasoning looks good. 🤗🙏❤🇬🇾
How long can you store Caribbean Green Seasoning in the fridge?
Mine lasts for months...no oil no salt..just a little water like he has done here
You can also store in the freezer
I live in the UK. Here I have seen Chadon Beni in the Chinese supermarket labelled as "stinking herb"
My celery looks very different. Stalks actually. Is this the leave at the top that you use or can you use the stalks?
Some types of celery is mainly all leaf...like we have here in Honduras
How have you not heard it also been called Bandania at least once anywhere in all of Trinidad but heard it being called Thai Parsley all the way in the UK?
can i substitute "Pimienta Cachucha" in place of the pimento peppers? (the cachucha that are not spicy at all.
Old wife fables, pepper hand to hand, Must say I love you guys too.
What's the difference between quolantro & celantro?
White vinegar instead of water to blend and preserve
Do you add onions to your green seasoning ?
In terms of those pimentos, apparently people are growing them with hot pepper now because I can't remember the last time I bought pimento or food or pastries that wasn't "hot" because of pimentos.
I do all seasoning fresh too! No bottling
Do she have more videos with dev I made the green seasonings perfectly
Looks good 👍🏾 thanks for sharing 🙌🏾
I am in Australia and I don't know if the plant I have is broad leaf thyme. The leaves you show seem thinner than the ones on the plant I have. My plant is the variegated version of (what is sold here as) "Cuban thyme" and it is a succulent. How can I tell if its the right thing? Googling hasn't helped sadly.
Same thing, comes in a varieties or sizes and colors, thickness.
Shadow Benny is called Racao by Puerto Ricans
Can I add preserving powder to this?
Does anyone in the UK (London) know where to get Pimento peppers?
Have you tried Shepherd’s Bush market? Always worth a visit (if it still exists)
What can you put in green seasoning to preserve it out of the fridge?
Vinegar
I wonder if you could use a neutral oil in it?
How much water to put?
Left handers are the best Kezzie
Couldn't believe that there was a difference in thyme. Now ah buying English thyme and German thyme. They do have a smell difference.
Can I use a habanero pepper if I can’t find scotch bonnets
Yes, they're related and around similar heat level
Where the parsley, cilantro and lemon juice?
Lol my husband love pepper he would never take it from my hands
He doesn't want confusion omg lol
I thought Pablano pepper was the substitute.
How come there are no onios is it because of the chive
Do you use onions when you are making seasonings.
Onions will spoil the green seasoning. Use your onions fresh when cooking.
Is podina like mint? The ones they use in moroccan tea?
No it's not
@@mialopez2178 then what is it? What can you compare it with
Pudina in Hindi, is
Mint🥹
I use all of the above..yum

Grow up yes no hand to hand pepper! So said so done! That comes like you grow up learn to clean and season your meats..
Thank u for the video!
Green seasoning??? Is that when you stand at Green Corner while drinking for the Carnival season?
I agree with everything👍👍👍👐👐👍
You didn't tell us what to season it with.
As a Trinidian my grandmother made green seasoning all the time, so i can tell you that it is use for marinating meats, fish, seasoning stews, soups, curry dishes actually any dish you will normally use these ingredients.
@@jenniferprince3153 thanks
Dang she so fine
That's why it's superstition...not true. Pass de pepper. Time we get out of that.
💖
Wow🇹🇹👍😁
You talk to much get to the point and just get cracking.😮
