      +Jiselle BA This is what brings me joy the fact that I can reach out to fellow Trinis who are no longer in Trinidad and have not eaten foods that we grew up for a long time. So you know about this dish? So far my website is the only one with it!!!! I am excited to make a trip to Trinidad to do more videos with my mom. I don't have access to dasheen bush so I have to do a video on Calalloo (with crab and ting)!!!

    • @jizzieba
      @jizzieba 9 лет назад +1

      Yes! Calaloo with some blue crab right?lol
      Because of you and your videos, i have a chance to bring more of my trini culinary culture to my kids even though they does try to give me a hard time to it, as well as make their father who is country Jamaican feel like he have the best cook in the world for a woman.. so again I say thank you and God bless..

      My grandmother used to make tum gum when I was growing up in Trinidad. She used a large mortar and pestle to pound the plantain. She did not put any butter in it though. She would cook stew pork or stew chicken or stew fish and callaloo to serve with it.

    Thanks for introducing this back into our Trini culture. I remember seeing my great grandmother pounding plantain about twice when I was about six years old(many moons ago).lol. It just faded away. I never saw my mother or grandmother make it. The slaves brought this from Africa. Alot of provisions are pounded.

      @habibijan 8 лет назад +1

      Yes. It is slightly westernized by the addition of butter, but otherwise it is traditional west African plantain fufu. They even pound it in a mortar and pestle, and form it into a ball for serving.

    Yes, a friend of mine used to make it, but we did not. I used to love when I went to their home and they made it. Of course, not everyone had the big standing mortar on the ground and pestle to pound the plantain. As usual in Trinidad, some people make some dishes and some do not, but this is a typical Trinidadian dish. Thanks for video. I buy plantains all the time, so I am going to try this. I remember it had a distinct taste. I guess that unless the young people have older people around, they may not know about it. Have you tried using a food processor? I wonder if that will work.
