This is simple, sweetly spicy boil for seafood (or veggies) with a delicious subtle flavor complemented by lemon and garlic. Cook time is time spent simmering flavors together before adding seafood or vegetables. Ingredients:
4 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds |
3 tablespoons coriander seeds |
2 tablespoons allspice berries |
2 tablespoons dill seeds |
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes (or more to taste) |
1 teaspoon whole cloves |
8 bay leaves |
salt |
cayenne pepper or tabasco sauce |
1 lemon, sliced |
4 -6 garlic cloves (slivered or sliced ) |
Directions:
1. Combine all dry ingredients (except salt) in a square of cheesecloth and tie with string.
2. Bring a large pot of water (enough for about 4 pounds of seafood) to a boil, add the bag of seasoning, salt and cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
3. At this point, I also like to add one lemon, sliced, and 4 to 6 cloves of garlic, slivered or sliced.
4. Let the seafood boil liquid simmer for at least 30 minutes or until water is tinted and seasoned.
5. Add seafood or vegetables, and cook until done.
6. Drain and ENJOY!
