Hello Kirk and thank you for watching and supporting your girl. I appreciate your kindness. I promise to continue to do my best as long as God provides.💕
Thank you for this recipe I’m a first gen American and always visit Nassau for the holiday and I’ve been very eager to cook this :) it definitely something I want to surprise my mom with as I know she misses home sometimes ❤️❤️
You are so welcome, you’re going to make your mom so happy! My Bahamian cookbook is now available on Amazon for you. Have a safe and blessed holiday!💕💫👍
Hello Christine, thanks for supporting my efforts. Yes, I do have a video here on preparing crabs just for you. Please check it out now. God bless you sis.
Wow Melda you are the best!! Making crab and rice, is much easier than peas and rice! Actually, I asked my wife to clean the crabs and take out the fat. I could really taste the crab flavor in the rice. I'm giving my Mother-In-Law some to taste. She's the Peas and Rice & Crab and Rice Queen, everyone loves hers when she make it.
Hellooooo sis, how are you and thank you for watching. Yes it's a Father's Day special in The Bahamas. Thank you again and I appreciate your support and kindness. Love you.💖
I am a Bahamian live in the states & my mate say he want crab & rice OMG this looks amazing & you were very detailed Thank you so much...I will be making this today.
Hey Dellarese, thank you for the support and yes you can use tomato paste instead of the browning. As a matter of fact, I’ve done it many times before. Happy cooking my friend!
Heyyyyy delancy12, you did it and I am so so happy that this recipe worked for you. Thank you again for watching and supporting my channel. Stay tuned and happy cooking, sis.
@@Melda242 It is absolutely my pleasure. I do so appreciate the way you take us step by step from beginning to end. And of course your signature phrase that comes up in just about every video, " My word". I love it! Wishing you every success as your channel continues to grow because of your level of excellence in the kitchen. God Bless!
Hey DeAngelo this crab fat comes from the crab back. I have never tried the paste before. I'm sure it would give your rice or grits an awesome flavor as well. Thank you for the support.
@deangelocapron3406 You can also ask someone to buy them while they're in the Bahamas. Clean them and separate the fat. The bodies and claws are scalded for about 3 mins in boiling water. Once they are cooled they can be placed in a zip lock bag and frozen til the person is ready to travel. The fat is also stored separately in a zip lock bag and frozen. It is important that the bodies and claws are scalded first b4 freezing or the texture of the meat will be mushy once cooked. I also know that you can definitely find land crabs in Florida.
Melda 242 , thanks so much for allllllllll your great recipes. And the love you pour into your meals. Wish I was your neighbor. Thanks for welcoming me. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hello Kim, thank you for watching and supporting. I don't know how I missed this one but use could check out this link to see how that is done. Love you! ruclips.net/video/YOqNvLlle7Q/видео.html

Hello Sister C, thank you again for your support and kindness. I appreciate you and the Crab soup is coming very soon sis, just for you. Yes, if you are not able to wait, use the base in this video and go from there. Love you Sister C💕.
Hi Ms Melda, this looks divine! My Aunt Mae used to make this for us. How do you make crab fat? They don't sell it where I'm at in the US. Thank you and God bless.
Hello Trinity, thank you for watching and supporting my efforts. I appreciate your kindness. The cran fat is not made, it come from the land crabs. Check out my video here on how it is removed from the crabs. Love you and God bless you today.
Thank you ma'am, I'll definitely check the video out. I really appreciate that you bless us with these videos showing us how to cook good traditional Bahamian soul food! Thanks again!

Hello islandcop, thank you for stopping by to support my efforts. I appreciate your kindness and support. Scald means to give them a VERY QUICK boil. This is very helpful if you are not using the crabs the same day.
Hello Alesandra, thank you for watching and supporting my efforts. I appreciate your kindness and support. Please check out this link for the tutorial on how that is done. Love you! ruclips.net/video/YOqNvLlle7Q/видео.html
Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support. I never used the store bought crabs before, but I guess they would be able to give you the same flavor. Try it and please let me know how they work for you. Happy cooking and God bless you!
Hello Eileenyvonne, thanks for watching and I appreciate your support. The Tomalley is the main ingredient for this recipe, try it with just the crab parts then. But the flavor will not be as strong. Happy cooking my friend.
Hello Honey La'mour thank you for watching and I appreciate your kindness and support. Cracked Conch is already here and the stuff lobster will be soon.
OMG, I see real crabs going into that dish!! As for the salt I will just let people put their own salt in because I tend to put too much salt into food.
Hey Gerad thanks for watching and I appreciate your kindness and support. Yes, you can add the water first, but this is how I cook my rice. I made that clear in the video. Any way it will still be great. God bless.

Hey Dellarese, thank you for the support and yes you can use tomato paste instead of the browning. As a matter of fact, I’ve done it many times before. Happy cooking my friend!
@@Melda242 Sounds good thanks. I think we Bahamians prefer tomato paste especially old school Nassau folks. Your welcome I appreciate your recipes.🇧🇸

I’m having a time finding those crabs in NYC, any subs for crab fat? Like a crab paste ?
Hey DeAngelo this crab fat comes from the crab back. I have never tried the paste before. I'm sure it would give your rice or grits an awesome flavor as well. Thank you for the support.
@@Melda242 Thanks, I’ll continue looking for those types of crabs, otherwise I’ll ask someone to bring it up from Nassau
Go to China town they have land crabs.
@@rachelderenoncourt3881 Thanks, I’ll check it out

This is real Bahamian cooking. I cook mine the same way minus the celery also never used crab fat which sounds delicious. where can I buy crab fat ❤️
You have to get it out of a whole crab.
