Yes, it's easy to get carried away when talking/writing about these foods. I get the mouth-watering effect that makes me hungry.
Some of the names of the foods mentioned in the above sentences may not sound familiar to you, but don’t worry…you’ll become an expert cook making these dishes in no time.
Another thing not to worry about is how you pronounce the names of the food…if you don’t get it, big deal. Taste is what we are concerned about, not names.
And if you meet a Mr. or Mrs. brag & boast know-it-all Jamaican cook, be nice to him/her, and try to get some of his/her method of cooking, believe me the knowledge wont hurt you.
HOLD THE SPICE
In our three little restaurants in Atlanta, Georgia we have heard several people say they like the Jamaican food but it’s “too spicy.” That’s before they try anything on our menu…go figure.
And to their surprise, after tasting a sample of our food, such as Stew Chicken or Oxtail, their expression was,'this is soooo good, can I have the recipe?' 'mmm...Sure'
See, no need to hold the spice. Why? It isn’t hot"
