The edge is like a combo of the middle and brownie brittle.
I know, but I don't like both textures together

Fudgy brownies. Team middle piece or team crusty edge? I’m team crusty edge.

Did you also know you can substitute eggs with aquafaba? I experimented with the juice from chick peas and you can’t even tell. It whips up perfectly like egg whites.
middle! But I also love brownie brittle!

Wild blackberry jam. I made from blackberries I foraged in the village. So good with authentic French baguette.

All ingredients in the 2nd picture.

Strictly one teaspoon of the pectin. As for the sugar and chia seeds, you can use however much or little your heart desires. Or use natural sugar substitute like monk fruit and stevia.

Giiiiirrrrrrllllllll....

I see starch all the time here but I don't think I ever had it growing up. What is it made of and what does it taste like?

Oh, and during the process of making browning, if you make the mistake of letting the sugar cool before before the step adding water, you're going to end up with that sticky, hard, brown candy we grew up with that they used to sell on the street grin

I like hoisin sauce but I feel like the flavor won’t give “Caribbeanish” if I use it for this type of dish . What if it ends up tasting like Asian stir fry (which I love) but not as sort of a Caribbean inspired meal?
Believe it or not, there is a massive Chinese Jamaican population that speak with thicker accents than my husband from there. As a matter of fact, one of my family friends in Naija is half Chinese half black which is very common over there so it's incorporated into their meals.

Use south east Asian sauces like dark, light and hoisin sauces. Add rock sugar you get nice colour.

Use that for my fried rice, stir fry and noodles.
I second this though the rock sugar is not as easy to get in Nigeria. It gives it a beautiful sheen.

HueyNewton:


As a bi-national, will you say the average Nigerian meal is "bare", compared to that of Jamaica?


oh I'm 100% Nigerian Even though my family says otherwise Lol. My husband is Jamaican and the kids are half Jamaican. But to answer the question, our meals are almost identical. The only difference is that they always have veg. If it is not steamed cabbage and carrots then it's going to be callaloo which is basically tete. We don't always include veggies with our own meals. Also, we tend to cook our veggies a lot longer than they do.

Oh I know this recipe with molasses and caramel as well. I used to have a Jamaican coworker that showed it to me. What’s your specific recipe?Thank you in advance

I was just being lazy.

Actually even easier than that. It's literally just brown sugar and soy sauce and the soy sauce is not even required. Alternatively, you can use white sugar and molasses (1 cup of white sugar to 1 tbsp of molasses). It's more about the technique than it is what goes in.

I like how she explains it because she has pictures showing you what it should look like during the process to avoid getting a burnt bitter taste. I do it pretty much exactly like her but I spike mine with a little fish sauce grin

Two notes. One, if you can wrap your ladle or whatever in parchment paper or foil do so. It makes cleaning up a lot easier after. Two. Use a much bigger pot than the amount you're trying to make and be very careful when adding the water to the melted sugar. Very slow because it WILL bubble up.

If you want a more complex flavor profile instead of salt, use dark soy sauce and fish sauce. A little goes a long way with this. You won't have to make any for a long time.

I used this browning sauce pictured below. I added purple cabbage to mine hence the darker color

But prior to adding it, I just seasoned my chicken as usual (season to your taste).

The rice and peas were cooked in coconut milk and a bit of salt. Then I served it with the sauces from the chicken and cabbage.

Steamed cabbage recipe linked below

Yes ma'am! Rice was nice and warm with the coconut milk and mango chilled. Lovely contrast of flavors and textures. I really need to finish the repairs on my house and get back in the kitchen cry

Dinner:

Jollof rice, baked blackened (tried store cajun mix) chicken, and coleslaw.

I figured some of you guys might like this. I don't buy spice blends from the store any more since I found this cheat sheet and honestly, way better than store bought because you can tweak to find your perfect ratios and it's cheaper if you already have all these at home (which I suspect quite a few of you do). Also, always buy your spices at the Asian market if you can. Much cheaper and way fresher/potent.

Chicken laps for days!

Lol @ don't burn yourself

How safe is a pressure cooker? Have heard stories of them exploding and all...

Just need kitchen equipment that'll make life easier

I have both an electric one and old school one. The electric one is "safer" I guess because it won't even allow you to open it until it's decompressed if that helps. The traditional one is a lot bigger for large quantities that's why I have both.

Please, anyone that has used rice cooker, I get question

Can the rice cooker be used to prepare meals like stew, soup, meat stock, e.t.c, or is it just for preparing rice and boiling egg?

I'll like to know the other meals it can be used to prepare

Also, for those that make doughnuts at home, how do you know when "e don don enter"? (Don't really know how to put it in proper English... How will you know that e don don... You know, to avoid opening the doughnut to find out that the inside is still raw dough)

Thank you
