Directions
Bajan denominates something or someone from Barbados. Bajan seasoning is a blend of oils and spices very common on the island. There’s no fixed recipe, as every household has its own, but you can use this as a base and then adjust it to your taste.
Bajan seasoning can be used to flavor tofu and seitan, or add it to stews and soups to give them an extra ‘kick’.
To prepare it, simply put all the ingredients in a blender and process until you obtain a somewhat smooth texture. Store it in a closed jar and refrigerate – it keeps for up to one year.
The quantities in this recipe will give you half a jar of seasoning.
