Tell your Dad, well done. Most videos of Jamaican meals do not look good. Everything is mixed up, and hides the beauty of the meal before it is eaten. The beauty of the meal draws people to want to taste it and then the taste just Wow dem!

It can be picked when fully developed before opening. That is how ackee is harvested for mass sale. The fully developed ackees are then stored until they open on their own. I believe this process is done to prevent the ackee from going to waste as they can fall off trees sometime after opening

@@masonix_angel_morningstar7891 ok, I can see that picking sale or canning. Maybe that's why a few years ago there was few cases of poisoning in my area from tin ackee. Fully develop might vary from person to person. To be safe, I just allow it to open on its own before I consumed.

Back in the 1980's, I would eat at a small Jamaican restaurant in Monterey. I loved their jerk chicken so much, I bought a small bag of jerk seasoning. Whenever I barbequed, I would sprinkle a bit of seasoning on the meat, trying to make that bag last as long as possible. You have to remember, back in the 80's, Japanese restaurants were still a rarity; Jamaican restaurants were unheard-of.

Pastor Steve, you are not afraid to get down and dirty! I love how the sauce is dripping down your face while you are reviewing the dishes! This is a restaurant I would enjoy whole heartedly! Jamaica is a place I've not visited, however I've been to Nevis, St. Kitts and Grenada. I imagine the cuisine maybe similar? The sea bass looked delicious. My mouth was watering. However, I was eyeing the ox tail and the beef barbecue!!! I also enjoyed your lovely shirt! Plus, the music! And the proprietor had his gloves and mask on while preparing food from scratch and his restaurant was spotless!!! A major plus!! What is the saying? "Cleanliness is next to Godliness"? Thank you for visiting all these wonderful restaurants. Upon my next visit to Los Angeles and Las Vegas I will know the best places to eat! I'm keeping a log! ❤❤❤❤🌸🤟!!!!!

The timing is not in the eating or cooking but in when you pick it for use. When fit or ready it opens up, thus releasing the gas that could be harmful. One should never force the pods open, allow them to open on their own.

As a Jamaican, food looks great but, we normally do not eat rice and peas with seafood. Seafood is usually eaten with, bammy (cassava bread), Johnny cakes/ fried dumplings, festival (sweet fried corn bread), or white rice. I've never seen ackee and saltfish eaten with rice & peas. We have our own flat bread/ wrap called, roti. Traditional jerk meats are slow smoked, over green pimento wood not charcoals. Food does look good but not Traditional.
