1) Homemade Allspice Alternative

Ingredients:
nutmeg
cinnamon
cloves

Method :
Mix up equal parts of these three spices.


2) Homemade Apple Pie Spice

Ingredients:

• 2 Tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 1/2 Tablespoon allspice
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon ginger
• Optional: add 1/2 teaspoon grated dried lemon peel to add some brightness

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, mix together all ingredients.
2. Pour into an airtight container and it will last for months.

3) Homemade Cajun Seasoning 

2 1/2 tsp paprika 

1 1/2 tsp chili powder

5 dashes cayenne pepper (or less if you don't like it very hot)

1/4 tsp pepper

1 tsp salt 

What you'll do:

Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.  Add to any soup or dish.  This seasoning is great just sprinkled on top of vegetables or to season meat.

This recipe is easily doubled or tripled.  I like to keep a large batch of it to have on hand when I want it.  If you are making a large batch, then you will use approximately 2 Tbsp per serving.

3 tsp turmeric
2 tsp coriander

Cajun Roast Chicken @ Tesco

Dah lama aku cari resepi ayam perap yang ada dijual di Tesco. Rasanya memang marvelous! Aku sangat sukakan rasanya. Sekarang dah takde jual dah. Sebab terkenangkan rasanyalah wujudnya resepi Mixed Herbs Roast Chicken aku tuh.

Kemudian, aku terjumpa lak pekataan 'cajun' dalam pencarian tentang rempah di internet. Teringin lak rasanya nak cuba rempah tu. Jadi aku cari kat Tesco. Ni yang aku jumpa...

Seperti yang tertera pada paket Cajun Style Seasoning jenama Tesco neh, bahan2 yang terdapat dalam rempah tersebut adalah:-
paprika
salt
maltodextrin - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maltodextrin
sugar
garlic powder
onion powder
flavourings - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flavor
red pepper flakes
mustard powder
smoked paprika
black pepper
anti-caking agent ( silicon dioxide ) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anticaking_agent
thyme
oregano
bay leaf

Ketiga-tiga bahan ni memang memusykilkan aku. Jadi aku cari dalam wikipedia. Ternyatalah ianya adalah bahan2 kimia. Sangat tak seronok!

Atas usaha mengurangkan benda2 kimia untuk dimakan, aku cari dalam internet cara nak buat rempah cajun ni... Aku dapat kat sini : http://allrecipes.com/recipe/cajun-spice-mix-2/

Ingredients 

Original recipe makes 1 /4 cup Change Servings

• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 1/2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon onion powder

• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 1/4 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 1/4 teaspoons dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  
  

  Directions

• Stir together salt, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, onion powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, thyme, and red pepper flakes until evenly blended. Store in an airtight container.

3 bahan kimia tadi takde dalam senarai pembuatan rempah ni. Boleh la cuba buat lepas ni...ekekeke...
