For me, Green Seasoning was about $18 of herbs for a one-shot sauce vs. a $4 bottle, so the economics were clear. I'm normally happy to scratch-make everything, but I was up to six recipes this week already, so I cut myself a bit of grace (and now have a delicious bottle of green seasoning in the fridge, which I'm going to start dumping on new things, starting with pizza.)
I love when I hit these "it's not just me!" moments. This week it's: "As per usual with pan-frying, the oil took quite a while to heat up and then got way too hot way too fast." (Aha! Not just me!)
This book sounds like a fun check-out-from-the-library-first pick for me, to assess how expansive my pantry might need to be. No Caribbean grocery store around here that I know of, and I'm reluctant to special order single ingredients. Thanks for the review!
