After trying lots of more common Trinidadian foods, I took a walk on the wild side with some exotic Trinidadian bush food in Caura, Trinidad!
My friend Chef Jason Peru and I headed to Caura in rainforest in the northern part of the island for this unique food experience.

👕 DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: teespring.com/stores/davids-b...
We met up with some friends, who showed us all the fruit trees nearby. They had lime, grapefruit, tangerine, mango, coconut, and guava trees. There are over 200 types of fruit trees here!
I started with an unripe guava, which was a little sour but sweeter near the center. The tangerine was also amazing. Then, a guy climbed a tree and got me a coconut, which I drank the water from.
It was so refreshing! Next, Jason and I tried a sweet and sour clementine and a vibrant and tart grapefruit. Then, I had a fruit that was a unique cross between a lime and an orange!
Next, it was time to cook! The guys here were making fish broth, curry goat, chicken pilau, curry iguana, and armadillo!
Next was a pomerac, which is a waxy apple- or pear-like fruit that grows throughout the Caribbean. I followed that with some wild chadon beni (culantro).
Then, we walked to the river, which was crystal clear! Nearby was some sugarcane, which was the ultimate sugar rush! You chew it, suck on it, and then spit it out.
Back at the house, we had fish, pork and chicken, as well as a soup cooking. They added spices to the goat curry, which smelled amazing.
They had some kingfish broth going as well. While it cooked, we took some shots of alcohol and watched them cook duck, chicken, a rich-looking pilau, potatoes, and more.
Then, I watched them chop up the iguana! He floured it to clean it and then rinsed it before adding garlic, pepper, ginger, chadon beni, and tomatoes.
Everything smelled incredible. I tried some of the kingfish broth, which also contained noodles, carrots, sweet potatoes, dumplings, garlic, celery, onions, pimientos, peppers, and other vegetables.
Then, they added a lime and spicy pepper to it, which enhanced the flavor so much! It was bursting with flavor and easily the best fish soup I’ve ever had!
Next, I headed back down to the river to see how the iguana was cooked. They added garlic, pepper, ginger, chadon beni, onions, and tomatoes to it. They steamed it in a pot over stones by the river.
Nearby, they were getting ready to cook the armadillo in another pot over stones. First, they toasted cumin seeds, green habanero peppers, pimiento, onion, garlic, jeera, saffron, and curry powder.
Then, they added water, let it reduce, and then added the armadillo meat. The curry was tasty and light. Adding coconut milk really enhanced it and tied it all together!
The iguana meat was tasty, gamy, and muscular, and the flavors were amazing. Next, they prepared some snapper with the spices and ingredients.
The armadillo was also very muscular. The meat was creamy, and I loved the dry roast. It was too good. I loved the fat layer under the shell!
Both of them were unreal. Next, we headed back up to the house to try the tippy tambo, which are little waxy potatoes and a local fruit called peewah.
The curry goat was fatty and meaty, with so much flavor. I also loved the pilau. It reminded me of Latin-American rice dishes I’ve had.
I loved the brown sugar, pigeon peas, and chicken in it and mixing in the gravy from the curry goat was amazing. The curry goat was so great, I had to get more!
I finished with some chewy and spongy goat belly curry, and a tender, buttery, and light steamed snapper with tomatoes!

    Fish broth is a Saturday tradition in most homes in Trinidad. Ppl go by the beach and get fresh fish, marinate and bubble their pots. It's also a breakfast treat. It's great for a hangover. I grew up in the countryside and wild meat is life!!!! I miss my country! Thanks for showcasing us David!

    Now I do not want to delegitimize your experiences but this is absolutely not a thing in most parts of Trinidad. Trinis who have lived abroad for a long time have this very romantic yet disconnected view of life T&T which unfortunately is many times not grounded in reality. I would argue that you are more likely to find people eating pizza or KFC on Saturday than you are to find ones eating fish broth. But then again you did say you grew up in the country so maybe that was a tradition in most homes there.

    Yup, those of us from Gen X and older or from the bush parts of Trinidad or who live near the coasts know about this kind of life. Fish BROF is a Saturday institution. It was either fish brof or Sancoche. The urbanized and Americanized parts of the island do not know about such things. Millennials and Zoomers have a completely different diet lifestyle. But there is a renaissance of sorts of conscious young people wanting to return to this kind of simple life and eschew American franchises and processed food.

    Everything depends on preference but there is a right way and a "I like it this way". Pelau which is a rice pilaf made with caramelized stewed chicken and beans is related to Joloff Rice and Jambalaya and other West African rice dishes. It is not meant to be sappy and it is not a descendant of, related to or a spin on Biryani. There is a standard and then there is a preference , do not confuse the two.

Seafood was my ultimate favourite, crab, prawns and lots of different types of fish, salted fish or smoked black fish. I even loved shark & bake 😋🌶

    You can't please everyone. Why is it so important for him to specifically say it's of African influence??? I thought we would be happy just to see other trinbagonian cuisine featured besides the curry. The series is about Trinidad and Tobago not Africa, not India. You all are not Africans and Indians by birth. You're trinbagonian and be grateful an outsider is giving our food exposure that we never got before.

    @@CarlJohnson-bt8nj I am not sure if you are being sarcastic or if you genuinely don’t understand but food is influenced by culture and culture is basically the people for example a lot of Venezuelans recently came to Trinidad and there was a volg where they took david to a Venezuelan restaurant, the restaurant was owned by a Venezuelan and all the workers were Venezuelans now I’m sure chef Jason and his friends could have cook some Venezuelan food because they are chefs after all but took him to see the Venezuelans making their food and I have no problem with that just as he took David to see his Indian counterparts prepare Indian influenced meals so now if he decided that his friends can cook African influenced food atleast mention it don’t just leave the world blindsided because it’s not only Trinidadians watching this.

    Ok. So guys we can start loosening the knots in our knickers now. This is much better and an improvement on the previous videos. Let's pass on the curry dishes and comments because that was the only way wild meat was cooked long ago with the coconut milk. All the fruits that he tried reminds me of living and growing up in Trinidad, the Portugal, grapefruit, sugar cane, pommerac, etc. and finally the pelau, coleslaw, the fish broth and all the other things he tasted. Quite an improvement in this one. This group of guys makes it very enjoyable to watch. One criticism, in my opinion, is that the pelau looked a little gummy and too sticky. To the person who called us haters because we dare to comment on too many curry dishes including roti and doubles, I say to you that this is what we have been waiting to see, VARIETY of dishes. This is quite an improvement and waiting to see what's next. Remember that we are commenting only on what we see at this time not what we don't know yet. Jason Peru still gets on my nerves though. Did anybody see them cook the oil down? Should have given him to eat with the fish rather than eating the fish alone. All in all this was a great bunch of guys and a good variety of dishes. Looking forward to the next one. P.S: wonder if we should start eating pelau with our fingers now because David made it look so much more tasty eating it that way.🤔😀😀😀🇹🇹🇨🇦
