|
To make Bajan Seasoning you will need
Ingredients
| 1 | | Head garlic; broken into cloves and peeled (10-12 cloves) | | 1 | medium | Onion; halved and coarsely chopped | | 3 | bunches | Chives or 2 bunches of scallions, trimmed and coarsely chopped | | 1 | | Green bell pepper; cored, seeded and coarsely chopped | | 1/2 | | Red bell pepper; cored, seeded and coarsely chopped | | 1 | | Celery stalk | | 1 | | Scotch bonnet or 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced (for hotter seasoning, leave the seeds in) | | 1 | bunch | Flat-leaf parsley; stemmed and coarsely chopped (about 1 cup) | | 1 | bunch | Fresh thyme; stemmed, or 1 tablespoon dried | | 1 | bunch | Fresh marjoram; stemmed, or 1 tablespoon dried (optional) | | 1/2 | cups | Fresh lime juice (3-4 limes) | | | Salt and freshly ground black pepper |
Instructions
Coarsely puree the garlic, onion, chives, bell peppers, celery, chili
peppers, herbs and lime juice in a food processor or pound to a paste with
a mortar and pestle. Correct the seasoning, adding salt and pepper or lime
juice to taste. The mixture should be very flavorful. Store in a glass jar
with a non-reactive lid. Refrigerated, it will keep for several weeks, but
the sooner you use it, the better it will taste. Makes 2_1/2 cups -- enough
for 2 pounds of meat, chicken or seafood.
