The white one is long and the yellow one is round and it is light yellow as long as you see the white milk stain on it you know it's full I hope this helps the white one does really hard and does not cook well that's why you have to use the yellow one
You're so right. Using the yellow one now and it looks like golden vanilla ice cream. I think I must've let it ripen a bit too much because it's kind of soft but I'm using it still. First time making oil down so I'll see how it goes
Different countries prepare certain dishes differently what may taste good for you may not be for someone else ive had both and honestly i prefer mine from Trinidad that doesnt mean i'll ill speak the one I had in Grenada.
@@kenishathomas7516 I did not speak I'll of Trinidadian oil down. I was just informing as to how we make oil down in Grenada. Reading is a skill that you do not seem to possess.
That's Trinidad way of making oildown soup. Grenadians do not do their national dish Oildown that way. Let it dry down till the oil is formed, turmeric and a little curry power for color is a must. I love Grenada food.
I love this so much.......I want dumplings, pigtail, smoked bones, sweet potatoes, Irish potatoes, B-fruit etc etc......my mom from Charlottesville, so you know what kinda sweet hand going on here!!
I'm glad to hear all this goes into oil down. I live in Tobago but I was born in Trinidad when most of the Tobagonians I know say they only put the breadfruit and meat nothing else I thought I was doing something wrong but I will not put pigtail as my significant other doesn't eat pork🤫😥
To all Grenadians, this is a Trini version of Oildown so it will be completely different from yours. It's like callaloo from Jamaica which is different from Trini callaloo. Mind you callaloo is our national dish. There's no who made it better. The ladies acknowledged that Oildown is a national dish in Grenada, they made their own version, Trini version that is and let's leave it at that. It's not that serious!!
Exactly 💯 I don't understand why all the blasted fuss especially if the title said Trinbago version, shoot at least they acknowledge where it originally came from backside people miserable yes smh.
😒 stups … have some respect… bout Dey version LMFBAOL ! This is not oil down and who are you to tell us to leave it at that ? You ain’t see Grenadians taking yall shit and say that’s our version but y’all always wanna hop on our shit like some fucking goat 🐐….. JUST BYE !!! JUST FREAKING BYE !

Hi there, Wonderful Video. Love Arlene Style of Trini cooking, since I am from Trini myself, would you consider doing a Vegan Style Oil Down? Thank You
Love it!!! Not a fan of pigtail although I do eat pork in other forms..just don't like the taste of salted/smoked meats. I use saltfish or make it vegetarian..but I make it exactly like this. I like the breadfruit cooked until it just disintegrates in your mouth😁😁..great Kezzie and Tobago sweet hand👌👌👌
My grandfather is Grenadian and his oil down look just like this but with the yellow breadfruit instead. I personally prefer it this way my Grenadian friend own was a lil dry.

Grenadians invaded Trinidad in the late 1800s and early 1900s, squatted on land that was not theirs, stole property that was not theirs but today vex about a breadfruit oildiwn that is actually better than theirs. Yuh cant make these things up.😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I honestly feel that yall could have done that oil down wayyy better. No disrespect but that look like Soup. I know y’all saying that this is a Trinidad oil down version but let’s be real here that is no where near oil down. I feel like y’all should have practice more before y’all do this.
I find you a bit rude, it's our national dish it is ours. We can't claim to cook paleau, doubles better than Trinis. We respect everyone's culture and food. I find the tone comes off very entitled big island, disregard small island. Could be wrong. I admire the chefs for letting it be know that this is the national dish of Grenada.
That’s disrespectful❗️ as a Grenadian that is so disrespectful. How the fuck you could say SUCH thing. If it wasn’t for Grenada OIL DOWN Trinidad would NEVER BE CALLING THIS TRINIDAD OIL DOWN VERSION. The sad part about it is that is our NATIONAL DISH of Grenada. If GRENADIANS disrespected your COUNTRY NATIONAL dish it would have been disrespectful. How dare u aa stop that. This oil down is SOUP I CANNOT STRESS MYSELF OUT ABOUT THIS. You better put some respect on the original oil down yes.
Nah sah this is our national dish and you're not doing it justice at all. This is no where near our dish, this is your version so don't mention Grenada because it is not. You can't cook oil down and say you don't want oil doh😤😤😤😤😤
@@horlicks3920 if you listened and not put stick in your ear you won't come for me. It's my island national dish and Grenada was mentioned so go pray and mind your business.
@Carla Clement they were educating where oil down originated sweetie, they never said this is Grenada version of oil down it is the way trinbago makes it that's all.
I love ur cooking but Please no offense this is ur way u make it in trini please don't call it oil down😡😏😏 call it something else 😡, what u make dey is not Grenada national dish no body could do it as the grenadians there's no stirring in oildown 😡😡please don't 😏😏

To make the best oil down you must use the yellow breadfruit and not the white one The yellow one is creamy I love oil down
I don’t know how to choose breadfruit. How would I know which breadfruit is yellow?
The white one is long and the yellow one is round and it is light yellow as long as you see the white milk stain on it you know it's full I hope this helps the white one does really hard and does not cook well that's why you have to use the yellow one
Thanks so much. In North America it’s hard to find but I’ll keep looking.
If I see breadfruit at the supermarket in Maryland I grab it.... does not matter white or yellow. Beggars can’t be choosers. Lol.

Yes. I used saltfish as well cause I dont eat pork. And of course the dasheen Bush, Its wonderful

Grenadian here we would usually put curry or tumeric and put dumpling and fig. Sometimes saltfish and chicken too. You would call it packing the pot

I made oil down using this recipe minus the pigtail....boy oh boy it was so delicious. Many thanks
Wish I could have posted a pic of my oil down
Followed the recipe without the oink oink 🐷
Turned out perfectly!
I would've fried the pigtail after boiling. Give render some fat, give it color, and extract some of that flavor. It's Just boiled big tail
It looks delicious but I don't know what bread fruit tastes like . That overhead camera shot is a very nice touch 😁👍👍🇺🇸
It tastes similar to potatoes like russets
Hi there, Wonderful Video. Love Arlene Style of Trini cooking, since I am from Trini myself, would you consider doing a Vegan Style Oil Down? Thank You
Do it like some Grenadians put tumeric,fig, dumplings and breadfruit and just don't put your meat
My whole family from Grenada 🇬🇩 funny thing when I went I didn’t have oildown but I heard a lot of people love it
And I love it y'all give respect to the ancestors
This has been my favorite dish since childhood, oh gorm so yummy.
How did Arlene prepare the pigtail before going in the pot?
Can Arlene make pastel lpie?
