A bold, herb-forward seasoning blend used as the flavor foundation in Haitian cooking. Think of it like a Caribbean sofrito—perfect for rice, stews, meats, fish, or even tofu! My husband’s family is from Haiti, and I have grown very fond of their cuisine and trying (with lots of practice) to learn the depth of layer and flavors in the food.
