Description

Our version of Adobo Seasoning has lots of granulated garlic which were ground down in my mortar and pestle and then I added some salt, black pepper, oregano, and a touch of turmeric.

I think that when people hear the word turmeric they immediately think of heat/spice/hot/chilli. So, to set facts straight… turmeric is a major ingredient in curry powders. Turmeric does add a “warming” colour to foods, but it’s added to foods/seasonings/blends more for its flavour. Turmeric is mildly fragrant and has almost a ginger like “bite” to it. When you add turmeric to food a bit of “heat” does come through but it’s not like chili which is predominately strong and can be overpowering.

Adobo Seasoning is essentially and all-purpose seasoning that can be used as dry rub, wet marinade (a marinade base), a seasoning on meats and vegetables. It’s also rather spectacular as an everyday seasoning. It can be used as a sauce base as well. It can be added to anything. I’ve read that it’s amazing sprinkled on pizza prior to cooking it.
