Okay I'm a Canadian and I have lots of Jamaican friends and I cook Jamaican food and this is definitely rice and peas but this is not How Jamaicans make it at all😮😮😮
Good try. But no. The title says Jamaican Rice and Peas. That's is not how we cook it. The vegetables are all on point but the way the escallion is used is not a good representation. But to each his own. You have a good grasp of the cuisine but need a little more practice. AND YES ... I'm Jamaican. For those who talking about twist to cooking, note the title said nothing about a twist so if you representing authentic cooking, get ready to be authentically critiqued.
@@iamantiwar2003 Then how would you know if it's actually Jamaican rice and peas? They could have said it's their take on the dish. Oh well, I guess we found the American version of Jamie Oliver in ATK.. 😂😂
This is a nice attempt at rice and peas. You should of soaked the peas longer, and there's no chickem broth in rice and peas.This is definitely a creative version.
I just throw the thyme and pimentos in a tea bag, and then remove it when it's finished. Easy tip for when you're cooking it for guest and wanna keep the fresh flavor of the herbs.
I cooked rice for the suggested 20 minutes and it was hard like rock. I had to continue cooking for another two hours so that the rice softened to be eatable.
Those complaining about representation and authenticity miss the point entirely. The goal of ATK is to standardize recipes and celebrate great food so anyone can try and enjoy great food. Jamaican here, it's silly to groan, moan and complain about everything. Personally I prefer Gungoo Peas (grandules, pigeon peas)since red kidney beans gives me gas bloating and awful headaches. No one makes rice and peas the same way. Heck I've never made it the same way twice. Lol
Yeah, until they start 'inventing' jamaican recipes and foods. Standardize, my foot. Keep thinking that, and see where it gets you. Some other nations they 'standardized' are smart enough not to let them know everything. Jamaicans like you rolling around with your belly up, waiting for the rub down from the master.
@@IAmThankfulToday I didn't watch that episode because Dominican cuisine is similar but we use different terminology. I didn't want to "pasar una mala sangre"(get upset) for no good reason.
I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with you to an extent OP. While there are various ways to prepare rice and peas, there is an aspect to authenticity when you're going to call it Jamaican rice and peas. If the video had referenced it simply as rice and peas, with the point being to highlight to a Caribbean dish, I would be in more agreeance with you. The issue is you're talking about "standardizing" a cultural dish, when every culture has shown to take issue with this. Take Ramen dishes for example, or certain Italian dishes. Members of those cultures voice their displeasure with an inauthentic representation of a cultural dish, because when people who have only experienced a standardize version, travel to said country and get the authentic dish, the travelers sometimes question the validity of said authentic dish and then state that the dish should be standardized to better meet the needs of travelers. Maybe it's just me, but that's a slap in the face to the culture and it just causes unnecessary strife. Please don't think that I don't understand your point, as I do and see it's validity. This is just me sharing a different perspective.
To everyone who watch this video please remember the few ignorant people complaining about authencity do not represent the people of Jamaica. Good food is a universal language so keep cooking and enjoying and hopefully you will visit us and try it from the source ❤️
@@iconoclast2359 I remember they once made arroz con pollo (rice with chicken) which is eaten in all Latin America and they insisted it had to be seasoned a certain way, but the seasoning and the terminology vary from one place to another.
Why would you call people "ignorant" for voicing their opinions regarding authenticity? Who made you the gatekeeper and spokesperson? Your comment is ironically ignorant, because you want to sit and talk about who and who doesn't represent Jamaican. We're a diverse people with various opinions that we may not always agree upon, but that's what makes us beautiful - not ignorant.
As a Jamaican, I kindly ask that you stop labeling things as "Jamaican " for likes and views... call in something else... but in my 39 years I've NEVER SEEN OR HEARD of chicken broth in rice n peas
It’s a good idea in theory, but I don’t know how coconut milk would affect the pressure cooking. I’ve had bad experiences with thick liquids in pressure cookers.
Remember, never eat or cook anything unless it is 100% authentic to the original despite the fact that no matter how "authentic" you think your version is there will be countless other people who will claim that you have it all wrong and that theirs is the "real" authentic version. Not to mention we can only cook with the ingredients we have available wherever we live. Should someone who can't buy Scotch Bonnet peppers locally for example just not make this dish at all or should they just use a the closest thing they can find. Stop gatekeeping food. By all means if you have the ability to travel and experience other cultures cuisines where it originates you should, but don't let "authenticity" stop you from cooking and enjoying great food.
Then if that is your point then why call it jamaican rice and peas? Since everybody will have their own twist on the dish. The country jamaica is a brand on its own then people should not use the name of the country to gain traction, views or to get sale of the product. Why didnt she call it southern beans and rice? the name Jamaica is a bigg deal and it is synonymous with good food that tastes good and full of flavor and let's not forget we cook shelly rice that is well steam that's what we do. Why should jamaicans stand back and watch people who has not bloody clue about the authentic recipe cook garbage and call it jamaican food, and jamaicans should say nothing?
That rice look wet. Needed to take the lid off and leave on a medium heat to steam that exist moisture off. Not shelly enough. The basics are there though.
It's ok to put your own twist on anything - doesn't necessarily mean your version is 'authentic.' The amount of rice put into that pit was enough to give anyone hypertension. As for the draining of the beans, was the canned version used? Jamaicans who opt for kidney beans in their rice and peas do so for the color. IF uncooked beans are used, then it's washed and IF left to soak, thay very same water is used, because it would be clean
BRING IN A JAMAICAN CHEF to do these types of videos. There are thousands out there to choose from. If you're doing world cuisine segments, bring in chefs from those places.
How can a clear person tell you how to cook Jamaican rice n peas. And the rice is soggy. That is not how we cook rice n peas.. Spanish Town in te house..
You don't need to be Jamaican Jamaican to cook Jamaican food,you just need to be thought properly just like u don't need to be french make french fries,that the have school to train chefs.
That’s is not how you make Jamaican rice and peas u don’t strain the liquid when the liquid with the peas is cooked and soften u get a bowl and put the rice in it and wash it and drain off the water and pour the rice into the coconut mixture in the pot and stir the rice red peas and turn down the heat under the pot
Why is it called fish and chips instead of fish and fries? Why is it called bread pudding instead of bread soufflé? Just a regional translation. It’s a Caribbean Dish and they have a different English dialect.
Traditional Jamaican rice and peas also use a variety of peas (pigeon/gungo peas, cowpeas, rice peas, red peas). Kidney beans are popular but peas traditionally were used a lot more
@@majorlazor5058No need to be snarky. Someone is asking a legitimate question because they don't know. How do we know that ATK isn't doing what they usually do by taking a cultural recipe and Yankeefying? "Authentic but changed to match what we prefer instead."

I am looking at this video and trying to keep an open mind. My suggestion is for her to actually sit down with a Jamaican cook and have them demonstrate how they cook Jamaican rice and peas authentically. Maybe this is some version of rice and peas, but I would not consider this Jamaican rice and peas. Interesting effort though.
With the exception of a few islands and l mean a few most Caribbean countries refer to the beans as peas. So this is called rice and peas. @@sharonsolana
Note: There is a difference between coconut cream and creamed coconut. Coconut cream comes in a can, or a shelf stable carton. Creamed coconut, is a solid block that sold in a box. If using canned coconut cream in your rice and peas, depending on the brand and the thickening agents used, you may need to water it down a little. Creamed coconut ideally should be cut into smallish chunks to be put into the kidney beans once they are cooked. You'd cook the kidney beans in water or stock. Once cooked add the chopped creamed coconut and stir a couple of times to start dissolving it. Add your washed and drained rice, thyme, green onions, garlic, pimentos (count them) scotch bonnet, butter, salt black pepper etc. Bring the pot to a hard boil. Stir well and cover with a tight fitting lid. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 20-25 minutes depending on the rice used. Before fluffing, remove all the aromatics, including the pimentos you counted. Pimentos, like most aromatics will always rise to the top of the rice during the cooking process. FYI: While pimento berries are intrinsic to Jamaican cuisine, they can be damaging to the teeth if accidentally bitten into, so it's best to remove them.
conceptually correct in terms of ingredients. After everything wrong lol. Jamaicanrice is typically cooked and remains " shelly"- the grains do not stick together. And we cook the peas in coconut milk for 45 mins.
I guess almond milk, peanut milk or any other nut milk. I think if you subbed in dairy milk it would be a different recipe. The coconut flavour is in the background compared to the rice and bean flavour
They don’t try to replicate recipe techniques exactly. They try to create methods that aid in consistency and ease. I followed one of their Chinese stir fry recipes and it tasted almost like it was from a wok despite me using my standard home pan, all because I followed a few easy steps they added.
One of the worst rice and peas I've ever seen. Please bring in at least a certificate check to cook our dishes correctly. Why is is so difficult for Americans to cook rice dishes? That was a terrible representation of Caribbean food. Why are you straining the beans. What were you doing?
@@sandrah7512 From personal experience (though of course YMMV) removing relatively large and distinct stuff (which those are) from a pot with liquid isn't harder than from a strained mix. Possibly even easier you can easily mix and get those separated from the beans. They also used a measured amount of liquid, that seemed to fit exactly the rice amount needed later (they didn't add more water, just noted that it may be potentially needed, I suppose for people who don't have a pot they can seal?) so no need to separate the liquid. It's not like they used an ingredient that could noticeably add or remove/soak liquid during cooking, which would make measuring helpful, those pre-soaked beans are relatively neutral on that regard. I do agree that straining and measuring everything is a more sure/robust way to verify everything is correct and doesn't need adjustments. But for occasional home cooking it's a bit of an overkill, making the whole thing relatively more complicated (not by a lot, but it can vary by cook and kitchen).
Honestly, I dont like the format of the chefs talking to each other while one cooks. The other doesnt really add anything to the content. I prefer the person cooking to just talk to the camera.
This is not Jamaican Rice and Peas. Jamaican Rice and Peas is made with Gunga peas also know was pigeon peas which is readily available in the U.S. Red beans and rice is southern U.S dish. Living in Jamaica I have never seen rice and peas made with red kidney beans.
It’s a staple in Jamaican cuisine every Jamaican knows it and it’s a common dish to see on the table regularly but then again maybe it’s not so common for someone “living in Jamaica” but uses a Princess Diana photo as their profile pic…🤷🏽♂️
20 minutes cooking is a little tight for long-grained rice, but can be enough based on the exact type. Visually (though the screen I'm using isn't great and the focus on the video doesn't seem to be perfect for he rice) it even looked like the rice might be even overcooked to me, most of the grains seemed broken by the time it was plated.
Properly washed hands are safer than gloves in food service. They follow proper hand washing protocols but they are not going to waste time in every video showing them wash their hands.
Because Jamaican English is a different dialect and red beans are what they would call peas. Also you don’t need to announce you don’t like a recipe. What do you want an award?
@@mariaconsuelothomen there’s way more wrong with this video then them not explaining the names trust. Find a Jamaica. Restaurant or a recipe by a Jamaican chef.
@@mariaconsuelothomen This video is a shortened clip from a full episode with multiple segments. The part where they talk about the dish and the name was trimmed off.
Try not complaining people and realize, the FACT is , they tried. You got they gist of making Jamaican rice and peas, now go try it and see, how it turns out! ATK makes recipes but what they do is “test” and we all get to experience it if we tune in; we will learn something new on. (ATK) America’s Test Kitchen…
It’s almost like people have never seen this channel before. They rarely make food the traditional method. They try to find ways to create consistent good results. A lot of home cooking has extra unnecessary steps or inefficient methods we just pass down from generation to generation, because of tradition.
Why is the clip title and the video title itself labeled “How to Make Jamaican Rice and PEAS” 🫛 When there are NO Peas in the recipe?? Typo.. then please Correct it, that’s misleading and unprofessional to have a typographical error!
I came here for the comments and I wasn't disappointed.
Honey you did a good job. You make it look so simple and easy when I get my foodstamps I will be cooking peas&rice with some oxtails
In Jamaica and rest of the English speaking Caribbean most legumes except for broad beans are called “peas" hence the name of the dish.

Ok.. this is a cultural dish. You call it beans, we call it peas
Ive been to Jamaica but never had this rice dish
?????RICE and PEAS 🫛???????
I’m very confused and Disappointed!!!!!
The beans we call peas. If you put actual peas in it just toss the whole thing out.
😂😂😂😂
Um.... where are the peas?! Not saying i think they need to be in this, but the title says rice and peas....
@@sandrah7512 -.-
The video should be called "Jamaican Stew Peas"
Soaking beans has to be the worst thing ever. Recipes that take days to come together are mentally exhausting (beans, breads ect)
What, no peas? Where's the peas?
Jamaicans call the beans peas
@@SouthernVaBellemascot bean ah bean and pease ah pease and only Jah can tell mi seh mi wrong
Shouldn't the title say Jamaican Rice and BEANS? Or do folks from the island call beans peas?
Yes. The recipes call for beans, but Jamaicans call it rice and peas; she is culturally correct with the name.
First
Jamaicans only
Drizzle honey on top!
Second😂
Start cooking healthy 😮
Just look😂😂😂😂😂
Wear food gloves when touching foods demonstrating proper food handling.
Properly washed hands are safer than gloves in food service. They follow proper hand washing protocols but they are not going to waste time in every video showing them wash their hands.
Why does the title say "rice and peas" when you're making rice and BEANS?
About making dried beans: nowadays most people use a pressure cooker.
Because Jamaican English is a different dialect and red beans are what they would call peas.
Also you don’t need to announce you don’t like a recipe. What do you want an award?
@@woodwindsrock I had no ideas. They should've explained this in the video.
@@mariaconsuelothomen there’s way more wrong with this video then them not explaining the names trust. Find a Jamaica. Restaurant or a recipe by a Jamaican chef.
@@sandrah7512 Now, that changes everything.
@@mariaconsuelothomen This video is a shortened clip from a full episode with multiple segments. The part where they talk about the dish and the name was trimmed off.
First thing! wrong peas
Try not complaining people and realize, the FACT is , they tried.
You got they gist of making Jamaican rice and peas, now go try it and see, how it turns out!
ATK makes recipes but what they do is “test” and we all get to experience it if we tune in; we will learn something new on. (ATK) America’s Test Kitchen…
It’s almost like people have never seen this channel before. They rarely make food the traditional method. They try to find ways to create consistent good results. A lot of home cooking has extra unnecessary steps or inefficient methods we just pass down from generation to generation, because of tradition.
Moke food
Why is the clip title and the video title itself labeled “How to Make Jamaican Rice and PEAS” 🫛 When there are NO Peas in the recipe?? Typo.. then please Correct it, that’s misleading and unprofessional to have a typographical error!
My lady that receipt is not quite readymade??? Please stop insulting African peoples way of lives 🙃
