Hey Foodie, Thank you for stopping by...
I have read and taken into consideration concerns some viewers had and making improvements as I go forward. I am new to all this and your feedback (given respectfully) will help me improve the quality of these videos.
Concern that we’re voiced:
1. Unable to see recipe ➡️ Recipes will now be in the description box
2. Music too loud, my voice too soft➡️ Will improve in my next video
3. Talking while words are on screen ➡️ I will try not to talk while words are on screen (Should I make the videos without voice?)
Let me know how else I could improve, Remember I am learning as I go along. Thank you and spread kindness.

In st. Vincent we eat it as desert, where I grew up. My family never eat it with salfish.
Or with fish broth. I guess it depends on the region.
Some people like myself also like to have it with souse. It just depends on your preferences. But I love the combination of sweet and salty.
@@troyeustace1021 In Jamaica we eat it as a sweet dessert but after discovering this version, I fell in love with sweet and salty version.
We make something like this in Trinidad but with corn, We call it Pamie .
You did an amazing job❤❤❤❤
I’m from Montserrat and I can remember my Grandmother used to make doucana all the time for the family and also share with friends. I am now 60 yrs and living in the UK.
I really enjoyed your doucana video. The steps are simple and very easy to follow not too much ingredients, which brings out a beautiful colour to the doucana when they finish cooking. I am going to make your recipe using all the ingredients. Hope the colour comes out perfect like yours.
Did your sweet potatoes had the yellow flesh? Please let me know.
Great job.❤❤❤❤
Doucana is a snack in St Vincent. Antiguans eat it with saltfish and other sides.
Looks wonderful I've never made it before so I'll give it a go thanks
Thank you for making this video. New subbie ☺️
Liz young watching from st Vincent loving it much love.
Looks delicious, thank you! This was a nice video with happy vibes. 😊Xx
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you
Liz young sure bet lam going to try this recipe.
When we buy coconut on Utica Avenue, Brooklyn, we ask them to open it for us. That way, if it’s not good, you just get another. That is done before you pay for it and placed in a transparent plastic bag.
Ilove
One mistake, Vincies do not eat our Ducuna with saltfish or any protein. It is eaten by itself as dessert, as a snack by itself OR with hot coco tea for breakfast. Antiguans eat theirs with saltfish, not we! Noo Sa! 😂
Whoa…I might have got my information wrong…I consulted two Vincies for this recipe and they told me about the saltfish (they live in Canada though so that could be why they were off with their info)
Why is she saying Ducanoo?!!!!! It's not even spelled the way she's pernouncing it as!!!
@@user-xg8ez7nr1o sorry if my pronunciation offended you. While I was making a St Vincent version the word is use in other Caribbean Islands with a myriad of pronunciation, not to mention the word is not indigenous to the Caribbean. When I first decide to make this video, I was going to highlight the recipe from each island, but still haven’t gotten the time to…Yes I might be pronouncing it how we do in Jamaica but I do welcome your feedback on how to pronounce it.
Given the opportunity....I would eat one 24 7 365........✍🏿🇻🇨
Right, work smarter not harder. I am definitely going to use my food processor. This might sound crazy but do you think l filling could be frozen for future use? I have a very small family.
Can you send me some of those leaves? I want to make it..
The story is mix up.vincentians eat it as a snack and Antiguans eat it as a dish prepared with salt fish and other relishes.
Can I have the name of the store where you get the banana leaves
Danforth food market in Toronto...Sorry for my late reply.
Why throw it out? Why not take it back to the store and get your money back. I always return mine
Ohhhh...will have to do that next time.
