Foods from other cultures...

[Jazz]

What other types of food do you just LOVE (apart from Jamaican)

do you know how to make any of them?

Do you prefer any of them over Jamaican food? if yes why?

share recipes if you have.

true ting bout the dumplins tanyer, mi granmere dumplin dem used to so soft and gummy no likkle grip but hey nevva know no different. now when I make dumplin the jamaican way the relatives and friends say stormmey.....

what are these

me: dumplin

dem: really dem so hard.....brite

bwile dumpling suppose to be firm doant.
Jamaicans knead the dumplin, Canadians use a spoon to mix and spoon it into the water when it is still really puke puke looking. So as a result it is very soft nothing really to bite into.

Soon come with a good recipe Jazzie me working an iglin same time on here

Re: Foods from other cultures...

This is one of my faves; you can practically eat <span style="font-style: italic">peas and rice</span> by itself. It's not called <span style="font-style: italic">rice 'n peas</span> but <span style="font-style: italic">peas and rice</span>...a major difference.

<span style="font-weight: bold">Peas and Rice</span>


1 cup pigeon peas
2 whole cloves garlic
5 sprigs of fresh thyme
2 cups rice
1 red pepper, diced
2 scallions chopped
1/2 cup of cut bacon
1 tablespoon of tomato paste
salt and pepper to taste


<span style="font-weight: bold">Directions</span>

Boil peas in a medium saucepan with 5-6 cups water
Cook peas 45 minutes or until tender and set aside.
Fry bacon in a medium pot with scallions, garlic, and red pepper
.
Suate for 3-5 minutes and add salt, pepper, thyme, and tomato paste.
Add peas and along with 4 cups of the water used to boil the peas.
Bring to a boil and add rice.
Reduce heat, cover tightly, when most of the water has evaporated.


Cooking time: 45 min

8 lemons/Lime &quot;big sour&quot; (your desired amount)
1/4 lemon Juice

all-spice (your desired amt)
1/2 tspn salt (your desired amt)
1 carrot
1 stick of celery
2 Irish potatoes (if desired)


Directions

Clean portion wings in vinegar and warm water.
Place wings into pot containing 8-10 cups of water... (this will ensure that all remaining oils and other particles are removed).
Let wings boil for about 5-8 minutes.
Remove from pot and place into a bowl containing cool water, rinse well with water and lemon juice. Place wings into pot with about 8-10 cups of water or until wings are completely covered.
Slice onions, pepper, celery, carrots, and potatoes. Add salt, onions, celery, lime , pepper, lemon juice and all-spice seeds. (Boil for about 45 minutes). Add potatoes and Carrots.

Serve with home made bread or Johnny Cake (Bahamian style...like a bread), if desired.


Scrumptious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Foods from other cultures...

Thai food, Indian food, Some Greek food, Italian food, some Chinese food AND some American food.....best dish I think I ever had was in a Thai restaurant...deep fried whole snapper in a sweet-hot sauce that was to die for! ....also love most Northern Italian fish or chicken with Francese or Marsala sauce.
