    I love Farine so much. I always purchase whenever I'm returning from Tobago, but this is a lot of work it makes me appreciate and love it even more.

    It’s nice to see the different ways Farine is made, in Guyana we eat it with roast meat. It’s a true labour of love

    I’ll never complain about d price of farine again. That is a lot of work and you really have to love what you are doing to do this amount of labor. As someone earlier said ‘it’s a labor of love.’ Totally enjoyed this video and wud continue to purchase your product. I think I’ll come look for y’all and purchase some. Tnx again for this video. Btw, I enjoyed your genius way of drying out the liquid by using the dryer side of the washing machine🫣. Smart guy

Always a hard working youngman you have the natural sweetman. I remember buying local sweets n treats from your mom always very well presented and tasty! All the very best.

    I grew up in Les coteaux the earlier years of my childhood. It felt great watching this video. Reminder of when my mom took me with her as a little girl and it will take her all day. Now there are machines to help shorten the process. I love your demonstration, u showed the original way and the modified way. Good job. I’m proud to watch this.

    The Amerindians in Guyana use a matapee to squeeze the cassava dry.
    Nothing from the process is wasted. The water is settled and the starch is dried and can be used for baking, porridge or even starching clothes. The liquid is boiled down to make cassareep.

    oh boy.
    as a teenager, spending some of my summer holidays with my maternal grandfather, on his mountain side estate, called fondbellaire, in Penville, Dominica, i can vaguely recall going to a friend of his home, where farine was being made.
    the process of manually making the farine, is as the gentleman ascribed to.
    many of the town folks have no knowledge of the process.
    i was lucky.

    Never had Farine. Would like to try it. I would make it as oatmeal.
    It looks so good. A good super food.
    Remember when Usain Bolt came on the running seen?
    He was asked, 'what made you such an excellent runner:' he responded, 'yellow yam.'
    Since that yellow yam price has skyrocketed.
    I have no doubt that dat is a super food also.
    This was interesting to watch.
