Jazzay,

Been following and remember the photo of your scotch bonnet pepper plant on your Mumbai balcony Only a Jamaican foodie would carry dem owna pepper plant to India

On the curry goat thing, a big big secret from long time is that some Jamaicans add garam masala spice to the standard Jamaican curry recipe

From Wiki: A<span style="font-style: italic"> Sadhu is usually referred to as <span style="font-weight: bold">Baba</span> by common people. The word baba also means father, grandfather, or uncle in many Indian languages</span>. Wonder if that is where we get <span style="font-weight: bold">bubbo dread</span> from?

Peas and love and masala

I asked the mister and he confirmed what you said about the Indians bringing the weed and also about the origin of the word...

As ai said though i dont see any usage here so i went and did some searching on that too and found that it is apart of their religious festivals especially in the Hindu worship of the Goddes Shiva... They have 3 different types of weed and 3 diff ways that they ingest...
Used wisely it is considered an elixir... Used stupidly its considered a fools tool ( or something to that effect)

Thanks for this tidbit BG you have given me fodder for a future blog installment </div></div> how come they didn't also bring kush?

Re: JerkMasala - a Blog

when you have a chance, you must do a thread on the indian words that came into the english language like, assassin, thug, etc

Kush- interchangeable with the name Ethiopia in the bible...

Another African-Indian link...as in the Hindu Kush mountains...

One may also want to look into the Sidi people...

Indians still in India of African descent
