    The priceless knowledge in these Amerindians of then to now would never die.

    Wow, I'm Guyanese born, but never knew it took so much to make cassareep. Very humbled by the video, those ladies are amazing at their craft.

    WOW! I'm impressed with the very humble way the ladies go about the making of the cassava products.

    I wish the UK would export Cassareep from Guyana, and I would be able to make pepperpot, it was so humble to watch these ladies make Cassareep from scratch.

      Can the Cassareep be made from sweet cassava? Bitter cassava is not available in my country.

    I'm Caribbean born and i'm completely blown away by this and seeing Casareep made for the first time in a way i can understand. I totally respect the daily lives of these ladies and what they do to make their meals everyday as well processing the Cassava traditionally. What is disheartening to me though is that i grew up in the islands and I used to remember my Grandmother who passed away a few years ago, she used to make Cassava Bread as well Cassareep. I was a way younger then and I remembered mostly of the process was helping her grate the Cassava. But i never understood the rest of it when she was squeezing the Cassava in towels. My Grandmother had a depth of food knowledge that was vast. I'm disheartened that she passed away and I barely learned much of what she knew including making Cassava Bread as well Cassareep. However I'm glad with this video I got to see how it's made and to understand the process.

    Thank you so much for the amazing video! It's awsome to see the process of making the cassareep. In Suriname they also make cassava bread and cassareep. We call it casripo.

    I'm an engineer and was absolutely blown away by the cleverness of the design for extracting the cassava juice with gravity and body weight. I'm also amazed by how they use all of the cassava without waste.

    That was enlightening! I'm from the Caribbean & make a sweet version of cassava bread & didn't realize all the goodness I was throwing away! I'm definitely going to try making cassareep! Thanks for all the time & effort put into this video! ☺

    These people live with lots of hardships to survive and it's sad the government does not support them to improve the standard of living.... most important a comfortable home. They are part of a rich culture and deserve respect and admiration.

    Thank you for making this video. I watched it today, more than two years after it was uploaded to UA-cam. I've been wanting to see a tutorial video on how to make cassareep for sometime now so I still consider myself lucky to have had it recommened to me. Having left Guyana at the age of not being inerested in knowing anything about anything I never knew how cassareep was made even though I was familiar with it by eating pepperpot. After four decades of not tasting it I was wondering if I could make it myself. This video will help me in that endeavour. So thank you again for your excellent videoing talent.

    There’s one thing that should be corrected. The cassava they’re using is “Sweet Cassava “
    The liquid or juice from that cassava is not poisonous.
    There’s also a “Bitter Cassava “ that is poisonous. The liquid or juice from that cassava is allowed to settle. The result is a solid at the bottom that when dried is used to make starch.
    The husk is fed to the pigs as there’s no effect on them.
    The liquid from the sweet cassava is not poisonous only the bitter cassava

    As I understand it. All you have to do is squeeze the liquid from the grated cassava. Boil the liquid, while skimming the fat, until it becomes cassareep?

      Use it to tenderize and flavor up meat and chicken it has a rich, slightly sweet flavor spices added to it really bring out the flavor of the meat or chicken or rice and vegetable dish

    wonder how they figured out how to eat something that contains cyanide......although in the us there are a few things that can be slightly poisonous that we have learned to eat......poke sallet roots are poison but the leaves are not when cooked..... I think parts of the potato plant can be poisonous at certain stages.....it was commonly thought that tomatoes were poison because they are related to night shade.
