Notes
- Check that your spices aren't stale before you use them. Rub a little between your fingers and if they don't release an aroma it's time to buy some more.
- Rub the seasoning on chicken, meat and fish or sprinkle on vegetables before cooking.
- Store in an airtight container in a cupboard.
- Ground scotch bonnet pepper is the best pepper to use in this recipe for an authentic taste. However, if you can't find it, cayenne pepper works just fine.
