What is allspice berries

[@TheRainasKitchen]

Allspice Berries is the correct name but they’re called pimento seeds in the island.

[@mrlegs1544]

Thank you so much,this has taken my food to another level 😊

[@TheRainasKitchen]

This is how Haitians make it too.

I thought Haitians were the only one because my Jamaicans friends used to make fun of me when I told them about that

[@ralphmidebelizaire571]

[@ritchkerleyaltidor4096]

Because that is the Haitian Epis. I’ve never known Jamaicans to do this, hence why she used the word “Epis”

[@hopesimmonsbeauty]

This looks GOOD! My family is from New Orleans. This is very similar to the holy trinity blend we use in Creole/Cajun cooking. Our version uses fresh celery, onion and bell pepper. With garlic and green onions added in. We use it to cook just about everything. 😂 I will try out your version as well to use in my Jamaican and Caribbean style dishes. I normally freeze all my fresh seasoning in ziplock bags. But it’s good to know adding salt and vinegar will preserve it in the fridge. Thank you for sharing. 💗

[@TheRainasKitchen]

Yes hun. That’s why I love food in the N.O. It’s Always well seasoned and filled with flavor. Thanks for stopping by. 🙏🏾❤️

How do you add it to rice and peas?

Add 1 -2 tablespoons when cooking rice and peas.

How do you store it, fridge or freezer? And if fridge, how long does it typically last (estimate). I'm trying to determine how much should be made

[@TheRainasKitchen]

Hi. Please s Store in the refrigerator. This will last until you finish it because the vinegar preserves it. Thanks

[@adrienneburroughs5418]

Had the same question. Thank you for asking! (And thanks Raina for answering 🙂)

[@davidedwards1479]

Can it be bought from you? And do you ever use coconut oil to replace the olive oil? Or clarified butter?

[@TheRainasKitchen]

Hi. I don’t recommend using Coconut oil in the green seasoning because coconut oil hardens when cold. I would recommend olive oil or vegetable oil.

[@TheRainasKitchen]

Sorry I don’t sell these.☺️

Why do you put the iris potatoes in the curry chicken so late? Especially when you are using the white parts of the chicken , that cooks so easily.

[@TheRainasKitchen]

Hi. It’s up to you. I don’t like them soft and mushy. Plus I dice them up really small. If you like them big, you can add them sooner.

My kids don’t like much spice. Are the scotch bonnett spicy?? Also will the vinegar change the taste??

[@TheRainasKitchen]

You don’t want it too hot. You can just add 1 or 2 scotch bonnet. These weren’t really hot. Save the hot scotch bonnet for the pepper sauce. Thanks

[@PracticeMakesPaper]

@@TheRainasKitchen What about the vinegar? Wouldnt it affect the taste

[@TheRainasKitchen]

The scotch bonnet peppers I’m the states aren’t very spicy. If we’re talking about In the islands use 1 and remove the seeds. The vinegar balances and helps preserve the green seasoning, therefore it does not change the taste.
