1 bunch green onion 4 to 6 garlic cloves 6 to 8 sprigs thyme 2 shallots 1/2 onion 1/2 red pepper 1/2 bundle parsley 1/2 green pepper 1 bullion cube oil

i put my epis/spanish mix into ice cube trays...i freeze it then put the cubes in plastic bag...it stays fresh and then you can just use as many cubes as you need

Haitian food is best in Caribbean cuisine in my opinion. It's a shame that more people aren't exposed to it. Top 3 types of food to me are Haitian, Italian, and Japanese in no particular order. Thanks very much for this video!

Thanks for your videos! I just got My new apartment and I can't wait to start cooking Some of your Recipes!!!🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹

~Haitian Epis~ Blend all ingredients in a blender: 1. Scallions/green onions 2. Thyme 3. Garlic cloves 4. Shalliots 5. Onion 6. Italian parsley 6. Green and red bell peppers 7. Maggie cube (optional) 8. Oil 9. Scotch bonnet peppers (optional)

As we say in Jamaican Patois, “Yuh hand dem cyan tun fashion!” Guh Deh mih luv.

Watching you chop veggies is so therapeutic 😩

Why don't you have your own show on the food network??? It would wake up the palate of the US!!!

Thank you so much for this. I am in the process of learning how to cook Haitian food. Need to know how to do Epis. Learning all the Haitian foods from you. Thank you 🙏🏾

Thank you so much for this video!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ it’s simple and easy to follow! I’m, unfortunately, one of those Haitian kids who didn’t get the chance to learn how to make basic Haitian dishes and seasonings. Now I’m blessed to have found this video. Now I can expose my husband to my beautiful and tasty Haitian cultural foods! 🤗

I just made it and it's delicious!!! Thank you!!

I love that cooking, definitely will give it a try

Hi Annette I js did this it came out good n used some to cook its lovely, thanks fr easy to follow instructions

THANK YOU! I am going to stop on the way home today and get the ingredients. Your instructions are so easy to follow. Been years since I had Haitian food and I miss it, now I can learn to make it myself. (I am not Haitian, learned to love the food from old boyfriends family)

Wonderful! I am going to try this...it looks so delicious!

I usually make my epis on a day that I will be cooking. That left over epis in the blender will be used with some water either for rice or added to meat while cooking. That thing is gold and will not be wasted. Thanks for the video. I also love the pepper garlic infused oil recipe.

Love the way you make the epis ❤

I love how you keep this so simple ! Can you please create a video on making liver

It that spices is spicy.It look amazing they have a different ingredient. it wonderful to know how to make haitian spices thank you annette

Thank you!! It came out perfectly! (Forgot the thyme though) I'm american but was with a haitian man for 7 years. Left him but can't divorce the food. I am so glad to have found your channel. I'll be looking out for cremas👊

I still follow this recipe to this day! Thank you 🫶🏽💕

I don't remember us ever using epis in my family, how odd! That looks delicious! I'd add a scotch bonnet if I'm regularly cooking Haitian. (Habanero is the next best thing if you don't have access to the Scothc Bonnet). Thanks for this!

Thanks Queen 🌺 I sure needed this

You make everything you prepare look so easy. But the flavors are alllllllll there. I love Haitian food. Thanks Annette 😆😇

Annette, I'm so glad " piment boucle " was optional, our people loves it and me I'm limited, the tiniest bit i could stand, very tiny lol. I'm going to try and make it your way, thank you my dear.🌷🌷🌷🌷❤

Wow thanks my Haitian friend and I enjoyed your recipe. I see others adding tomatoes which is a no for me. I’m trying this soon

I added epis to my Jamaican Chicken Wings; it's on my YT channel. Your YT channel was one of the channels I learned how to make epis from.

Excellent instructions!!!

I made it it looked exactly like yours

One of my in laws is Haitian and he is a good cookI. For more than a decade now, I have been using epis in my food. Anyone's meals can taste better by using epis. Epis makes the difference! I became ill last year and was hospitalized for six weeks and ever since I have been released from the hospital, the smell of Epis makes me sick now. Prior to my illness, Epis use to be a heavenly scent to me. Too bad for me losing my taste buds!! I have to force myself to eat any type of food now! It must be the Meds.that I take! The only good thing that came out of my illness is that I got my youthful figure again! LOL.

Love it!

thank you

Thanks for the video

Super 👌 bravo 👏 👏 👏 👏

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing

Got it👍

I made it your way 👍

U should do dessert videos but most def make a haitian cakes.

Great video how many days in fridge does the Epis last ?

Hey Annette , what kind of oil would you substitute the peanut oil?

Tasty

❤🇭🇹

You can put the ends of the green onion in water and it grows more.

It is good

Switch to Maggie for a healthy salt and a peanut oil from extra-virgin olive oil and you will have perfection

The blender is a Ninja

That was quick. It takes me longer to cut everything up. I add vinegar to my epis and olive oil so it lasts like 2 months. I use a little water since my blender is cheap and needs some help to blend everything. I use ginger in mine to give the food a fresh and clean taste and I use a lot more garlic. I don’t use shallots and I always forget to buy thyme so thanks for reminding me! I don’t use maggi either but growing up, that’s how parents made epis-with a cube of maggi. Good video!

Hi Annette! How much oil did you use? Thanks

Hi Annette, What kind of blender is that ?

My grandma used epis with almost every meal 🤎🇭🇹

I was wondering, for the Oil, you said it was the peanut oil right?

Hi 😊I put too much leek in my epis, how do I fix the strong bitter taste?

My, "Haitian," mom never created her own epis. She worked very hard and would cook our meals for the day in the mornings. But every Sunday, without fail she made my dad's "codein." I actually created a similar epis recipe once from Nadege Fleurimond's cookbook & my chicken turned out great. It's out of pure laziness that I do not make my own "epis." We do things on the regular if a habit is created. I personally stay away from preservatives. Different topic: I've been watching the hair videos on You Tube and did a "natural hair recipe," & without the normal preservatives my hair was scratching so within the week I had to clean my scalp because it was probably growing mold. So yes, those preservatives preserve product but at what cost to our health? My mom had to take alot of short-cuts in her cooking and hair maintenance as well but at what cost? She died of cancer. Please do some research on those aluminum pans we cook our rice and food that we "Haitians," swear by. Habits are formed but in the long run are not good for us. Personally I cook in stainless steel and avoid non-stick cookware like the plague. I am long-winded because I care and a little research will confirm my points. Love your epis recipe. Take care.

You should get msg free Maggie it’s better for your thyroid

I use a lot of garlic because garlic is good for health

🎉

You can also add mustard

I've seen some with a red coloring instead of green. What gives it that red coloring?

how long can you keep it in fridge ?

What is the name of the blender, I like that the blade comes out. Please

I love your videos and personality! I think I might have to get in line with this request but, can you please please please put the quantities, at least the estimated amount? African Diaspora folks (black Americans are the same) never do quantities. My mom: "Put a little bit.." Me: "Momma, how much??" My mom, "I don't know, you have to taste it/smell it." Sheesh!

How long can you keep it in the fridge

How much oil is that approximately

What do you mean by Italian parsley?

How long can epis be stored?

How much peanut oil did you put in?

How long will this keep in the fridge?

My mom also adds vinegar in hers

I’m just getting back from my meeting now I’ll talk with

What if you don’t have a blender

Do u use this to season fish before u fry it?

I need the recipe plz

No msg Maggie thank you

The thyme I have stems. Like not leafy....

Can u freeze it pliz, thanks

IM LIKE GOOD BL BYE NEW YORK

I didn't hear what she said in this video. I know she said pepper, onions, parlsey, green onioun and what else?

What kind of Maggi cube was that?

Charlotte? loll oh the shallot. I thought somebody 👩🏾 came in the kitchen. I’m just kidding, that maggi is loaded w/msg. They have low sodium & no msg bouillon cubes. Just as flavorful ppl.

Am I the only one that adds on ti ju sitro ?

Anyone knows the recipe?

No Maggie it's not good for you, msg in Maggie is not good for your health . Thank you for your epis recipe.

JESUS IS COMING SOON

very nasty Annette u have to clean it first ..
