This is the local form of accent seasoning in Montserrat and elsewhere in the Caribbean. It's either the commercial accent seasoning or a local home-made version sans the MSG and anti-caking agents. The salt is also significantly released in this version for the seasoning version there would have been 270g salt, but here I'm using just 100g fine sea salt as a base..

1 tsp ground bay leaf
1 tsp ground black pepper

2 tbsp onion powder
1 tsp ground cumin seeds
