Fried sweet plantain has NO added sugar. You wait until it gets Black then fry it. They are banana's cousin, but must always be cooked. Bananas can be eaten raw. We also cook green plantain and green bananas. All Caribbeans make fried plantain. We also all stew chicken and make oxtail, but we all have our own spin on it. Jerk, ackee and salt fish, and festival are distinctly Jamaican. There are also clusters of us that make similar foods. ❤️🇵🇷
You are correct except that plantains can be eaten raw. I make plantain salad all the time the consistency is a lot like avocado if you sliced it. You don’t have to cook them.
Hey Kev my name is Dashawn, you don't know me but you were my neighbor a long while back while you lived in salishan when you stayed in Tacoma and I always seen your flyers everywhere as a kid man and I just wanna say you a real inspiration bruh fr letting us know it's possible for anyone of us to come out our area. Keep putting on for Tacoma big KEV!!
I love Japanese, Korean, Italian, Mexican, and Chinese. Italian was my favorite, practically all my life, and then during the pandemic, I started teaching myself how to cook authetic dishes from all the other cultures. FANTASTIC. I do also enjoy Creole and Greek.
Ok, so I’m not gonna tell you how excited I was when I saw the commercial on BET of Churchy yesterday. My son was like, “What Mama? What happened?!??” 😂 Continued blessings to you both! 🙏🏾
The rings of calamari are not the suckers off tentacles, they are the bodies that are then cut into rings. Actually, a company got in trouble some years ago for selling chopped up chitterlings as calamari rings. I've worked in the restaurant industry since "92" and I've cut a ton of calamari.
We love you Kev and Tony!! 🇯🇲🖤💚💛 We don’t add anything to the plantains. The ones that are ripened produce natural sugars that basically carmelize when you fry them. You also have green plantains that’s more starchy when you fry it.
Man, I'm in tears😂😂😂😂 Kev is hilarious, of course. But I don't know how he can talk to Tony everyday, let alone work worth him!!?? I wouldn't be able to get anything done, I would be laughing constantly!!!!!😂😂😂😂
Bananas and plantains are cousins lol Yellow bananas are taken down from the tree when they are green and are very stretchy and used in savory dishes. They’re yellow when ripe and ready to eat in a sweet taste. Same with plantains, they start green are cut down from their plant and begin to ripen and turn yellow and sweet.
Kev ain’t never lied about the tomatoes in Europe. I went to Greece and they had some of the freshest tomatoes I’ve ever tasted. I am also not a fan of tomatoes but I could’ve gotten a whole one and bit into it like an apple lmao you couldn’t taste nothing like that here in America.
@23:00 I am on the side of TikTok seeing how palm color people/euros eat on the regular and it baffles me. Cheese and mayo goes on everything for them.... And I mean EVRYTHING.
Them not understanding why the plantain is so sweet is so innocently American lol
Tony Baker is a funny human being. That banter about general tso chicken has me crying 😂😂😂😂😂
I could see EVERYTHING he was saying! in 4K!
