@@Melda242 anytime and you're welcome
Great recipe. Gonna try it soon. Should I fry the chicken thigh the same way?
Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. Yes you can!
I am so loving this sis...I love the Cornmeal recipe. I never thought to use cornmeal instead of flour....I will most definitely try this..
Hey bro. you missed the live today. Yes, the cornmeal recipe is great! I feel like it's better than the flour (my opinion). Thanks for watching and I appreciate your support.
@@Melda242 I will try the cornmeal...I will not miss the next live show..
Ok I'll hold you to that.
Hello friend,
Looks delicious.😋. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day. 😃
Thank you for watching and I appreciate your kindness.
I love your accent which island you from? I also love your videos, since quarantine I find myself watching your videos everyday.
Welcome Jasmin and thanks for watching. I appreciate your kindness and support. I'm originally from Eleuthera.
@@Melda242 I see why I like you so lol.
Looks delicious I don't have corn meal will it come out with lite flour?
Welcome and thank you for watching. Sure you can use flour. Use it the same way as I did the corn meal. Happy Cooking!
This looks so yummy. Definitely trying this. How long do you let your conch sit in the milk?
Hey family thanks for watching and I appreciate your support. You should allow the conch to sit in the milk for about 10 minutes.
Melda 242 Thank you so much for responding. Will be making this Friday.❤️
God Bless you I am moving in 💕😅😅
Come on over, your room is ready! I appreciate you Miracle.
When I'm not sure how to prepare something I come here...can you prepare the crack chicken soon.😉
Yes, I can do that for you. Thank you for supporting me. and I glad to be of help. God bless you and happy cooking sis.
hello my friend, success to you
Welcome and thank you for supporting me.
O yes😚😙😗
Could you use flour n baking powder?
Hi Melda, we watch quite a few of your videos and love them all. Question, why do we choose corn meal for crack conch but flour, baking powder and corn starch for crack chicken? Is it because the meat are different? Have you tried the corn meal with the crack chicken?
Hello Shanieka, thank you for stopping by today.
That's a good question and yes it's because the meats are different and to show that the corn meal works as well. I have yet to try it on the chicken, but will soon, ok. God bless you, today!
Awesome. Look forward to seeing how the crack chicken comes out with the corn meal. Plan to try the cracked conch with it on Sunday.
My husband would love this! Can I get conch anywhere in the US?
Welcome to my channel and thanks for watching. You can get conch from Walmart, Sam's club or anyone of the meat food markets.
Melda 242 I had no idea- ty!
What do you mean by bruised? Looks good. I bought some conch from the fish market, is it normal for some of the pieces to have darker colors or should it all be clear? Might try this recipe. It looks good 👍🏽 How long should I soak it in milk?
Hello PT thank you for watching. I appreciate your kindness and support. To bruised is the same as to 'beat' or 'smashed' it. I was told that if the conch is dark it shouldn't be eaten - 'it might be' poison. I wouldn't use it. After beating the conch allow it to soak for about 10 to 15 minutes before cooking.
@@Melda242 Ok...I see. Thank You.
How long should they soak in the milk and what is bruised?
Hello my friend, thank you for watching and supporting my efforts. Allow your conch to soak in the whole milk for about 15 - 30 minutes. To bruise mean to flatten out with a mallet. God bless you and happy cooking.
🤣👍can I use coconut milk instead?
Yes, absolutely and thank you for watching, Rachelle.
Can I use evaporated milk to soak the conch in and for how many minutes
Hello, my friend. You can but the whole milk would be better for about 15 to 30 minutes before cooking. Happy cooking!
I never knew to soak conch in milk
Hey my friend, thank you for watching and supporting my efforts. Yes, it makes it very tender for this recipe. God bless you!

Thank you for watching and I appreciate your support.
That cracked conch is off the chains
@@corinafraser5783 hey cuz thanks for watchin and I appreciate your kindness and support. You try some now.
How come you don’t use black pepper?
Hey Kesha’s, thanks for watching. I don’t use black pepper because it causes acid reflux for my husband and I to flare up and it is an awful feeling.
It looks like you added more than a half tsp of garlic salt. Did you mean tbsp? Thanks
hello Tees conch shack, thank you for watching and supporting my efforts. Oh yes, you caught that one. It should be tbsp. instead. Happy Holidays.
@@Melda242 thank you! Happy Holidays to you too😊
Does the milk make it tender as well as the beating? How long do I keep it sitting in milk?
Hey Tina Carson thanks for watching. I appreciate you. Yes the milk and the beating make the conch tender. Please share your results.
Melda 242 how long would you suggest it sitting in milk?
Thank you so much for respond so quickly!❤️
My conch has been in milk for for about 30 minutes now.
Sis allow the conch to sit in the milk for about 5 to 10 minutes.
Does it matter if I added garlic to my conch as it marinates instead of the minced onions and added the minced onions to my flour mixture
Hello Jenson, thank you for watching and supporting my channel. I appreciate your kindness. Oh yes, you can add garlic instead. I know that would be lit. I do sometimes as well, because I love garlic. Happy cooking and stay safe now.
Can u do a video on how to make the,sauce for the conch ? The white sauce
Hello Banks Banks thank you for watching and yes I will just for you. Please stay tuned. I appreciate your support.
It’s just tarter sauce.... mayo and relish. It’s nice with some ranch too, if your a ranch fan😊
THAT LOOK SO JUCY
I have to cook conch fo special occasions here. It's more expensive per lb than lobster. lol
Hello Doone226, thanks for watching and supporting my efforts. Wow, it's the other way here. Well, whenever you can get some you must try this one. God bless you.
Miss Melda can I use bread crumbs instead of cornmeal?
Hey Sherika, thank you for watching. Oh yes you can use bread crumb or flour. Happy cooking my friend!
what can be substituted for the egg if the person doesn’t eat meat so I can’t do the egg bath?
Hello Sherika, maybe you could try a little mustard, if you don't eat egg.
Jesus loves you all. Please repent he is returning soon ❤❤❤❤
Melda I tried this recipe with the corn meal it was a disaster corn meal was to overpowering
Hello Jake, thank you for watching and supporting my efforts. You probably used too much. I always use only a thin layer. You could mix a little with flour and see how it works out for you. God bless and stay safe.
I see you didn't use salt or did I miss it??
Welcome and thank you for watching. I used the garlic salt instead.
Hi🔔🔔👍🔔
Stay connected
This recipe looks effortless and the outcome looks so delicious, yummy 😋. Sister I am trying to connect with you on IG, can you check me out 🙏.
Welcome and thanks for watching I approach your support.
Every time I fry using egg or buttermilk the inside is always still wet moist.. uneatable. Maybe that's due to using flour
Welcome to my channel and thanks for watching. Two things: maybe the heat is too high or you are not cooking it long enough. I'll do a video with flour and show you soon.
When are you going to make conch salad
Hey Tiffany, thanks for watching and I appreciate your support. As soon as I can get some fresh conch, I will prepare Conch Salad for you. Stay tuned now.
