The Everything Condiment

There's a Chinese grocery store across the bridge on the Old Montreal Road. I like going there to get spicy tofu. Today I found a condiment called green seasoning. Ingredients: Scallions, water, celery, garlic, cilantro, coyote jalapeƱo peppers, corn starch, white pepper, basil, vinegar, thyme, salt and ascorbic acid.
wow! That's pretty much all my favourite herbs and spices. I would just add some chili flakes and it would be perfect. As it is it tastes quite good. i will use it soups and stir fries and maybe try it on pasta like a pesto.

  3. It tastes really good. It's spicy and savoury. So far I've used in burritos, a soup and on pasta mixed with some tomato sauce. That green soup sounds delicious i think i might try something along those lines.
