- How to make the Caribbean style green seasoning paste that's used in all meat, fish and vegetable dishes in the Caribbean. A rich and lovely sort of marinade using fresh herbs and spiced up with ginger and pimento peppers. This green seasoning is from a recipe from Trinidad and Tobago but you can versions of it one just about every island in the Caribbean. See recipe at: caribbeanpot.co...
For all the Latinos that commented in this post it's the same thing. We are all the Caribbean and come from the same people. Because you speak Spanish does not make you a different people.Trinidad once spoke Spanish when we were colonized by Spain. Then the British took over and behold we have curry what a calypso of things. We have a lovely mix of things African, indigenous, East Indian and Remenants of Spain.
J Notes k
In Haiti this green seasoning is called "epise" I didn't know the the Trini's did it (not sure about the other English speaking Caribbean islands). The stuff is worth it's weight in platinum...made a whole bunch just Saturday to go in my spicy Haitian "boulettes". Great video!
You should not throw out the bottom of the green onions...just bury them in your garden and they will spring back up in a hurry...you will never need to buy any more if you do this. Just make a hole in the soil with the finger and drop the green onion piece in and cover with dirty.
Thanks for sharing your culture with us. One love my brotha!!
I'll cook for u anyday
Your recipes are some of the most AMAZING recipes I've tried in my life!!! God-Bless You!
I agree!!
I am a Jamaican who love to cook and this green seasoning does wonders for the meat I seasoned and left overnight. BTW, I used your recipe last night for the Savory Oxtails in the Rich & Thick Gravy and I just have one word -WICKED...LOL!!! These were the best they ever came out... the keys are to pre-season (overnight) if you can and I think the burnt brown sugar in the beggining made it AMAZING! Thanks Chris
Amo Trinidad y Tobago 🇹🇹
Hey Chris, your a Trini to the bone, my Mum use to make green seasoning like you, will definitely be trying out your recipe, thanks for sharing
Thank you for showing your herb garden. Very nice. Good idea.
CHRIS. The ice cube tray.....BRILLIANT!!!
I love what I’m seeing I’ve been hearing about it never understood how to make it thou! Thank you Chef you’ve made my day. All the way in Tanzania Africa.
I am making Pelau today, so I needed to see how to put together the green seasoning. Thanks!
Love this recipe Chris!!! I made this yesterday for my fish curry (which I also tried from your website as well). Hands down, it was the best curry I've ever made. Making my own curry masala has now been a turning point in my 'culinary life'. My family had second and third servings!! Keep up the great work. You are inspiring and your energy gets me excited about cooking! All the best...from a fellow Hamilton native ;)
love this video and especially appreciated the tip on freezing some of the mixture. Can't wait to try this out.
Hi Chris ..I am new to caribbean cooking but thanks to you making it so simple I am able to use your recipes and add a little soul to it as well. Once again Thanks Chris
Thank you so much. I have wanted the ingredients, for a long time. You are so generous, sharing your secrets with the world.
Great video!! Thanks for the step by step tip! I just picked up some culantro from the Chinese grocery and have helped my Trini friend make her green seasoning over the years, but everyone does it a bit differently. Great idea to freeze it down into some ice cubes!! I live by myself, so that works for me!!
Love your recipes and attitude towards food! There's just no point in using ready-made sauces, pastes and other seasonings because they're usually easy and quick to make yourself plus you've got full control of the ingredients you put in there. So you can be sure there are no artificial flavours, preservatives or other unhealthy crap in it. I grow a lot of the stuff I use in the kitchen on my balcony, mostly herbs and peppers. So your green seasoning paste is right up my alley. Thanks & cheers!
Looks good! We have successfully grown seasoning peppers here in Canada. We grow it in a pot and bring it inside in the fall. The plant we have now is about 2' high. Peppers for days in the summertime!
Super! Like a salsa verde with added sunshine :)
Love your videos. My green seasoning differs a little bit but still the basic steps are the same. All cooks put their own twist on things. Keep doing what you do
Do you mind sharing your recipe, where are you from?
After making this seasoning wow what difference it really does make ....
Bless Up Chris !

Chives, thyme, oregano, cubanelles, pimentos, cilantro, garlic, parsley, culantro, celery, scallions, lemon juice, ginger
Excellent recipe. Tried it and loved it
I really enjoy your videos and getting into creole cooking. Could you please add the amounts used for each recipe in your comments section so people can prepare your dishes easier? Thanks and keep on cooking
just came across your channel. love your recipes.also find it interesting you use the word "wicked" thought this was a New England thing.Thanks for all the great ideas.
agreed the green seasoning is easy to make!
Curront roll
You showed a little bit from your garden. Could you do a video about your garden so we could know what stuff would be good to grow?
I made some of this seasoning last night. I was able to also find Shadow Benny at a local Compare Foods in Charlotte NC which was great. They had it listed as Culantro. Scotch Bonnet peppers was really hard to find though. The seasoning smells awesome though.
Check Island Grocery on Albemarle Rd. in Charlotte for the scotch bonnet peppers.
It's really spelt Chadon Beni, it's also called Bandania. The Spanish speaking people say Culantro, or spiny Cilantro.
I made it today it came out great , I used lime in Place of lemon because that’s what I had in the house. I was going to make your recipe for ox tails tomorrow but I could not find them I did however find beef short ribs, do you think I’m the recipe will work if I replace them. I’m going to try it either way but thought you might have a tip. Thanks for sharing, we’re fans.
You are so awesome.... LOVE LOVE LOVE your FOOD techniques..... muah
Chris, my sister's in laws are from Jamaica and I remember back in 1997 they were visiting here in Florida, and at that time, I lived across the Street from my sister's family. One day the missus came over to talk to me as I was hanging laundry in my back yard and she began to ask me for what I thought was just weeds growing in the yard. Little did I know that many of the fresh herbs on this video were pulled up and trashed many times because to me they were just weeds. Hmmm Americans! LOL!!
I made the green seasoning its good thanks Chris
that's how we do it bro all that good stuff.
I always enjoy your videos! Great tips for yummy food! Keep it coming!
I absolutely love your channel!!! Thank you for all the great recipes. :-)
I love it! This video is proof that all jamaicans are farmers 🤣 we always grow stuff ❤
Of course I agree with you, noting better than nice fresh cut seasoning.
I bought the bottled one but would love to make it for myself, this helps.
I always throw in the shadow beni / bandania in it too , but of course if you cant get it,cilantro is d next best thing!
so good, love it
Can you do a video for oxtails?
yup
Thank you for this recipe Chris
I love your recipes : ) thank you
You make me want to cook.Good job.Your videos are encouraging.I almost think I am a great cook.Thanks.LOL!
Thank you👍🏽
Thank you for sharing.
In Trinidad we call the big leaf thyme, french thyme
Or Spanish thyme
I have all these in my yard am Caribbean
I like watching you in the kitchen great chef keep on cooking Dj Volts Boston Mass
Beautiful video love it awesome
Regarding how long it remains unspoiled in the fridge...it seems correlated to how much heat you have in it (the bacteria seem to hate it for obvious reasons) so I tend to put lots of heat (I use scotch bonnets as is customary in Haitian cuisine) and those are some of the hottest peppers known...I've had "epise" in a jar easily for a few weeks with no spoilage...it never gets beyond that since I usually finish it! ;)
Great Job, love your BBQ Tamarind sauce
Love it! Thank you!
Yes we all do!!!
Can you do a tutorial on calico rice and brown stew chicken.
I was wondering how to make..thanks.
I like your salt fish video. Thanks!
I sure would love to get a nice recipe for Coconut bread...
You get everything out of your backyard
I love culantro! :)
Hey buddy, I have been watching you on Caribbeanpot, why the change? Just curious.
Thanks for sharing Chris will use it on my jerk chicken.
hi Chris, Came across by chance and will be going to purchase the ingredients now. I'm assuming that Celantro (?) is actually coriander or dania (as known in India)? Will let you know how mine goes but thanks for such clear, easy to understand instructions. Good to go!! Have a good day. Carol
Hi Chris just came across your channel. I love it. I saw your herb garden and I was wondering if u had any pointers. I have tried but have never been successful. Keep up the good work.
can u do this with those hand blenders?
i'm getting one soon, that's why i'm asking
Name the brand of that food processor, please. Thank you for the recipe.
villagebelle It's a KitchenAid
O also like broad leaf thyme
Hi Chris, that video was very interesting I could almost smell the seasoning (lol), thanks for sharing. However my question is, would using lemon juice in the blended seasoning cause the seasoning to go bad after a while (being that the lemon juice is sour)?
Chris,
google Richters Herbs and you will find the thick leaved thyme ( many types) that you can plant.
Ingredients:
Peppers
Pimento peppers
Cilantro
Garlic
Parsley
Oregeno
Culantro
Thyme
Celery w/leaves
Green onion
Lemon Juice or Vinegar
Ginger
how long will the seasoning last in the refrigerator?
My aunt sent me a seasoning from Trinidad it wasn't the green one!!Red in colo.. smelt a lot like peppers rather than herbs..do u have a video for it??
Nice food
Wait, what? Chris has another channel???
Hi Chris,
What is Organo? the herb you use in the green seasoning. do you meant Oregano?
Hey Chris, I wanted to know if you have any idea on where to buy 2 things in Toronto Canada.
a Tawa and a traditional Trinidadian Iron Pot (dutch oven)...is there any major Caribbean Market that you know in Toronto that you can send me too. I live in Mississauga but don't mind traveling to Toronto.
Latino call this cooking base/ green seasoning, Sofrito.
EH CBunny thanx for the info. I see sofrito in stores and wondered if it flavors the same way as the green seasoning
Im from pr we call the tomato based (sofrito) and culantro green based is what we call (recao). My trinirican roots all make our own red tomato sofrito or green culantro n green onion based (recao) for everything!
Looks great, going to try it out today. Have a nice Large Mouth Bass to fry!! Thanks
mints are weeds its bes to grow them in pots than in ground. otherwise thanks for this because i forgot the portions
I made it but can't find scotch bonnet or pimentos ANYWHERE!
Where I shop the package reads JAMAICAN HOT PEPPERS and they look just like AJICITOS (sweet peppers)
Yow Chris how much of each ingredient did you use to make your green seasoning?
Cilantro is just the Spanish word for coriander, the word used often in the Americas in general.
Nice
QUESTION: Can this be stored in a preserve/glass jar?
Hello,
Do you sell your prepared green seasoning paste?
I would really like to try yours first.
I would love to buy a bottle.
hey chris, what is your background?
