What's The Best Seasoning To Use For Better Attractive Aroma For Stew by ChefDominiq(op): 12:56pm On Mar 23, 2021
Hello chefs, cooks and you that loves to cook.
For your stew or jollof rice stew, what is that spice or seasoning you use to give that beautiful aroma and nice to your stew.

wondering lately to change the aroma of my stew, to attract people around, I need to know the spice, herb or seasoning for before aroma.

Use bayleaf. It makes the difference
Also try frying your stew with some blended garlic.

Now too much of all these new spices in the market will end up spoiling the taste and affect the aroma of your stew because they are mostly chemically derived. But bayleaf is more organic and has a strong flavor that gives your stew and jollof that unique taste and smell coupled with garlic.

You're welcome.

For both stew and jollof rice, bay leaf will give it a nice aroma and flavor. Bay leaf is one of those spices I put in many things I cook, unless I'm baking. #BayLeafAddict


That aside,

For stew, small bouillon powder and then I use two other seasonings, in very small ratios.
I believe the fewer seasonings/spices in stews, the better, else it may end up tasting bitter.

For jollof rice, small paprika, black pepper and sufficient white pepper are a must. White pepper is one of theee secrets to cooking yummy jollof rice.

These are just the two species I use when I fry my stew and get good taste from it

Apart from tyme and curry, I only use chicken glory, that's all.
