    Wrong way
    Boil the ginger and pimento seed for a while
    When full boil
    Add sorrell
    Turn off heat
    Simmer for few days
    Strain
    Add sugar
    Red label wine
    Rum
    That's all
    Different folks do different things❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    • @empress2956
      @empress2956 4 месяца назад

      I agree boiling reduces the properties of the sorrel. One could boil ginger, premento for 10 minutes then add sorrel and lime/lemon cover for 24 hrs. Strain and sweeten with dates/Agave syrup if preferred.

    • @Marsattacks69
      @Marsattacks69 7 месяцев назад

      The problem when you do that is ginger can be quite harsh and you want it to simmer in the background and not be the main flavour. You don't want to end up with GINGER and sorrel

    Dried Sorrel as it is found I'm stores is too dirty. It seems that no amount of washing really helps and too much washing causes loss of flavor. What I do is I strain the final product through cheesecloth rather than do any washing.

  • @juliettawashington6655
    @juliettawashington6655 8 месяцев назад

  • @camillecrichlow8138
    @camillecrichlow8138 7 месяцев назад

    I think you might lose less sorrel if you pour it into a flour sifter/sieve/fine mesh strainer to remove the “pulp“ rather than scooping the sorrel petals and ginger out

  • @monicathompson3617

    You dont boil sorrel you boil the ginger with clove and pimento and cinnamon stick then you put in the sorrel cover it let it step and you need more sorrel that was too weak. You also need to clean your ginger better

    You don't say how long you have to boil the sorrel. Also the liquid sugar - does it come as a liquid or is it simply sugar dissolved in water?

    • @chefhenrykitchen
      @chefhenrykitchen  6 месяцев назад

      Let it come to a full boil and the sugar i use comes in liquid and you can use brown sugar to sweeten

  • @dl733
    @dl733 7 месяцев назад +1

    Came across your channel and decided to watch. I have a few recommendations and concerns, which are as follows:
    1. Have all the ingredients that you will be using at the counter, even if an ingredient will be the last addition (the rum)
    2. Either show how to wash the sorrel or state how it should be washed. This will not only endear people who know nothing about the drink but also educate others who know about the drink but learn something from your processes and procedures. You may also want to educate foreigners, including people from the diaspora, that dried sorrel may be substitued if the fresh sorrel is unavailable and state the processes and procedures for preparing it are the same
    3. Remember, that we learn differently it is not about a cookie cutter mentality to achieve that process. For example, although you did mention the quantities of sorrel and water, there are questions asking for this information. You may want to consider saying , after mentioning the ingredients, that there is no need to write it down because you will be putting the information [specify where it will be found].This will increase views
    4. You mentioned that sorrel has benefits. What are they? You don't have to do a deep dive into what they are but mention that the scientific community has stated that they are...
    5. The comment about you not washing/peeling the ginger...not sure if the washing occurred....is a natural and significant concern for some due to the corrupted food chain; for example, pesticides Outside of pesticides, a personal opinion noting that there were a few commrnts about no need for washing the ginger, that ginger like any produce that consumers buy is handled by so many people before it enters your home do why not washbit when, hopefully for those people, they wash other produces before comsuming them?
    6. Cleanliness is next to godliness, which is regarding your tasting of the sorrel. Although, I applaud your effort initially doing the test safely in a container a subsequent test caused concern. Specifically, the second time the spoon that you used to transport the testing amount to the container came in contact with the container from which the initial tasting was done, and then you used the same spoon to stir the sorrel which later you said it was to be shared with your friends. I wonder how your friends should they see the video feel about the matter. Additionally, what judgments would other people make should you offer them anything that you made?
    7. People are going to make criticisms or have opinions, and this is social media, so it comes with the territory. As a result, you have to adjust to it and think before you post. For example, a few people commented that what you called a hammer, the correct name is a meat tenderizer. For a majority of the comments, you either liked it or responded, "Thank u"; however, to one person, your response was, "You say tomato, I say tomatoe..."🤔. Remember, we are here to learn from each other!

    • @junioradams2968
      @junioradams2968 7 месяцев назад

      The tomato, tomatoe comment was a joke you dont have to go through life being so serious, he didnt decide to add the rum to the juice til later as its not a ingredients thats always in. People know how to wash and rinse their veg and fruits esp from the carribean its nothing new esp in these days. He did wash his ginger and he did say he washed his ginger. As far as the benfits people are more than welcome to research the benefits as he is not a health nutritionist. I researched it after he mentioned it in the video.
      Seems like you need to relax a little and not be so seriously about everything. 😅
