Green Seasoning is one of those herb mixtures that is unique to the Caribbean and differs slightly from island to island. It is used in a huge number of Trinidadian dishes. In Trinidad, it’s distinguished by the use of a local herb called shado beni (Mexican culantro). Fresh shado beni can sometimes be found in West Indian markets, but if not, fresh cilantro is a good substitute.
