Entered for safe-keeping for ZWT5. From Sweet Hands: Island Cooking From Trinidad And Tobago. Green seasoning is used in many Caribbean dishes, and the recipe varies by country. Trinidad’s uses shado beni (Mexican cilantro), a local herb very much like cilantro. Fresh shado beni can sometimes be found in West Indian markets but, if not, fresh cilantro is a good substitution.
A regular bread, not the sweet, cakelike type. Adapted from Breads of the World. Prep time includes rising time. Canned pumpkin is not recommended for this recipe.
The lime juice and salt mellow out the garlic flavor. This sauce was originally created for Shark and Bake, but it can be used with any grilled food. From the Barbecue Bible. If not serving this immediately, cover tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
This IS a WONDERFUL SOUP. And look at the list, just a few ingredients! I came up with lots of GREAT ideas for the contest, but when I asked my friends what they liked best, they always mentioned this humble soup! How funny is that? The rum really makes a difference. It is added at the very end, so if you have kids at the table and you’re worried about it, just serve them first and add the rum later. You may want to leave it out altogether, but just let me tell you one more time that the RUM IS a LOVELY ADDITION. I use Patak’s curry paste which is available in Asian stores where I live. Madras is labelled as a hot paste and Korma as mild. I’ve also tried a Patak’s paste called HOT/TRES EPICE which I do NOT RECOMMEND.
