I think these are all spices. Please correct me, Pat. I am not listing

anything green, because that would be from leaves:

 

cayenne, which I use in a lot of things

small red peppers

Chili powder

paprika

Curry

Mustard powder

A Jamaican curry mix

Allspice

Cloves

Gumbo File??? – not sure of this one

 

In the fridge: jalapeno slices – green, but spicy and not from leaves

Re: Green Goodness Salad Dressing

 

> I make this for our family. It makes about 2 quarts. . .

 

Big family, eh! That's a lot of 'goodness' in those bottles - and a nice

dash of spicy *heat*

too. Thanks for that :-)

 

Love, Pat <goes away mumbling: 'Divide by eight, no - sixteen - no, four

RE: Trinidad homemade drink

 

Thanks for the link to the Maubi tree bark drink recipe.

 

The people at the Roti (Trinidadian) restaurant make their own and said

they use ANY kind of bark. Either they meant exactly what they said or

were trying to keep their recipe secret (which is silly because the

process and the other ingredients are not at all obvious).

 

I have had sorrel (dark red, sweet and fruity) and sea moss (creamy).

One Jamaican place near here puts the sea moss in all of their

smoothies.

 

I love living in the tropics (way down south in Florida).

Sure do! Quite a list there!!!! I DO have caraway (in addition to what I posted

before) and

poppyseed, but not the chipotle powder, ancho, dill seed, juniper, star anise,

mace . . .

 

>what should I shop for to round out my

I'd suggest buy them only when needed - as in, if you see a recipe that calls

for something

or other and you REALLY want to try it, then by all means go and buy whatever it

is you

need (in a small amount) - so they won't go stale or lose their flavour on the

bedpost or

whatever ;-)

 

Thanks for writing in! Hugs.

 

love, pat

[Guest guest]

I didn't include the poppyseeds or sesame seeds. I need to find more to do

w/juniper...any recommendations out there?
