Stuffing, Caribbean style
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced red onions
2 tsp. minced garlic
1/2 each diced red and yellow peppers
5 cups (day old) bread, cut into 1/2 inch cubes and toasted
1/4 tsp. fine ground thyme
1/4 cup sliced olives
1/4 cup raisins
Pinch cayenne pepper [optional]
Pinch cinnamon powder
1 tsp. Angostura aromatic bitters
(see *Note below)
1/2 to 1 cup hot stock
Salt and Pepper to taste
Melt the butter and saute the celery, onions and garlic.
Add the peppers and stir well for another two mins.
Remove from the fire.
In a large bowl combine all the dry ingredients and mix well.
Next, slowly add the bitters and next the stock [depending
on how firm you want the stuffing to be].
This mixture can be used in many different ways:
for example to stuff turkey, chicken or fish or as a garnish
or side dish.
*Note:
I do not know yet if this is available locally. I only saw it for sale online.

Angostura bitters, often simply referred to as angostura, is a concentrated
bitters for food and beverages made of herbs and spices by House of Angostura
in the country of Trinidad and Tobago. Despite having an alcohol content of
44.7% angostura is not classed as an alcoholic beverage in the U.K. in line
with laws on other bitters. The distinctive bottle is easily recognisable due
to its oversized label.
