    As a Lucian there was a variety of food that is NATURALLY vegan she could have picked. Ackee and Saltfish is JAMAICIAN national dish. Salfish and Provisions is ST.LUCIAN national dish. The goat was also made "Jamaican" style, compared to St.Lucian style of burning the curry.(There are different styles of cooking, but Lucian cooking is always "cooking spices" then add the meat/veg, that is how it was taught historically) Accuracy is needed because this is how every island gets lumped into "Jamaican" and each islands' uniqueness is not represented equally.

      Exactly my same thoughts..... as St lucian good is heavy in ground provisions...tbh I think it has the worst food of all the islands to be fair....I'm.st Lucian and many people who have come to the island have said the same so I'm not being bias....I truly believe they really haven't got a national dish .....ackee n salt fish is Jamaica national dish ...but hey ...some cocoa tea for breakfast ....a bullion or braff for lunch and dinner well bakes and fish I guess like I said I struggle for good food from the island.....I moved there for 2 years and had to come back home to the UK because I struggled man....and the heavily imported store food wasn't good.....I lived off plantain...

      same with polish food - looks more like fusion polish cuisine. Bigos has much more ingredients, it is cooked for a couple of hours and there is no tofu inside (even in veggie variant)

  • @michellen.samuel2
    @michellen.samuel2 2 роки тому +144

    Correction - St. Lucia's National dish is greenfig (green bananas) & saltfish, not ackee and saltfish. Perhaps what you should have said Mariah is that you are sharing dishes that you ate as a child in St. Lucia, then it would have been ok. But you are leading people who are not familiar with St. Lucian culture to believe that these are our national dishes, and they are not. I do appreciate the video though because I learned about Polish dishes.

    • @Mia199603
      @Mia199603 2 роки тому

      The Polish dishes aren't traditional either...
      Rye bread should be baked using sourdough and served with more traditional toppings, for vegans it can be vegan quark (we don't have cream cheese in Poland at all, quark is the traditional Polish equivalent - I really recommend quark cheesecake, it's said to be one of the best cakes in the world), vegan yogurt, any sort of Polish fruit jam like apple, strawberry, prune with cinnamon, quince, etc. - it really just depends on the region of Poland.
      Pierogi dough should be just flour and boiling water. The filling isn't what I'm accustomed to, it should be onion, quark, potatoes, salt, pepper, although again - there are thousands of recipes for pierogi and they're all valid and cherished. Pierogi have to be BOILED before they're fried - otherwise the dough is guaranteed to be raw. You boil them on medium until they resurface (not longer, they'll break apart, also don't put too many in the pot, only like 10-15), they can be transferred to frying pan as soon as you remove the excess moisture from the surface just for safety so the oil doesn't start dancing and doesn't burn your skin. You dip the pierogi in sour cream or yogurt.
      This bigos is an abomination. The base should be pickled sour cabbage and a lot of different types of pork like raw bacon cut in cubes, pork shoulder etc. They should've chosen a different dish altogether, more suitable for a vegan and with ingredients easier to buy locally, because this isn't bigos at all.

  • @antoniafrivoline8060

    The Saint Lucian national dish is not ackee and saltfish or ‘saltfish of ackee’ as stated in the video (4:17). It is not just saltfish. It is green fig and saltfish (green banana and saltfish). A little research goes a long way.

      And this bigos isn't bigos at all. Completely different dish. They should've chosen a meal more suitable for a vegan (bigos should have loads of meat) and with ingredients available locally (I guess pickled sour cabbage wasn't an option but it is the basis for bigos).

    What is St Lucia's national dish? Hunni how long ago did u sell ur flag? No, no, no....the meals leaned more to another country's cuisine but not Lucian.
    Btw, I created a dessert take on our national dish green fig & saltfish ice cream. Those who will say saltfish, note that a praline is made first and it's to die for🤤

    awah masiay, I comment the St Lucian flag because I love my country, nonetheless. But people, when will we get actual people and not "Caribbeans" because a breakfast could have been bakes, saltfish/cheese/cornbeef, cucumber and cocoa tea (fine if that's not available). lunch would be green fig, a lil dasheen if you have and saltfish or a backs 😅😅
    and finally, for dinner, we eat stew food more than curry goat. Curry goat is almost $40/kg. It's a delicacy rather than something in everyone eats. 🥲

    The thing about Caribbean cooking is, what most would eat/make for dinner, we have for lunch, so we'd usually eat goat for lunch. And the bake and saltfish is mostly eaten at breakfast or dinner. For lunch we'd throw in some provisions or rice with the saltfish. But I eat anything anytime of the day, so to each their own. 😃

    Ackee & Saltfish is Jamaica's national dish not St. Lucia, but that said the correct way to eat it with the bake is to slice it open and stuff it like a sandwich, or sometimes people will break off smaller pieces of the bake and use that to pinch bits of the ackee & saltfish at a time. I'm Guyanese so I prefer the eat just bakes and saltfish, but it's a disservice to anyone trying Caribbean food for the first time to not have it with the ackee.

      Rye bread should be baked using sourdough and served with more traditional toppings, for vegans it can be vegan quark (we don't have cream cheese in Poland at all, quark is the traditional Polish equivalent - I really recommend quark cheesecake, it's said to be one of the best cakes in the world), vegan yogurt, any sort of Polish fruit jam like apple, strawberry, prune with cinnamon, quince, etc. - it really just depends on the region of Poland.
      Pierogi dough should be just flour and boiling water. The filling isn't what I'm accustomed to, it should be onion, quark, potatoes, salt, pepper, although again - there are thousands of recipes for pierogi and they're all valid and cherished. Pierogi have to be BOILED before they're fried - otherwise the dough is guaranteed to be raw. You boil them on medium until they resurface (not longer, they'll break apart, also don't put too many in the pot, only like 10-15), they can be transferred to frying pan as soon as you remove the excess moisture from the surface just for safety so the oil doesn't start dancing and doesn't burn your skin. You dip the pierogi in sour cream or yogurt.
      This bigos is an abomination. The base should be pickled sour cabbage and a lot of different types of pork like raw bacon cut in cubes, pork shoulder etc. They should've chosen a different dish altogether, more suitable for a vegan and with ingredients easier to buy locally, because this isn't bigos at all.

      Not true - the dish ackee & saltfish is Jamaican (although ackee is grown in St Lucia it is not the national dish or popular). Saltfish and green fig (green banana) is the national dish though. Lucians and many other islands also make these dishes, just that some are not as popular as in Jamaica or made slightly differently. Everything caribbean isn't always Jamaican.

  • @gemmeldrakes2758
    @gemmeldrakes2758 2 роки тому +2

    Cute idea, but the Caribbean food is more Jamaican than St. Lucian. Ackee is a Jamaican food. I have never seen a recipe from the Eastern Caribbean which involved ackee. This will give international viewers an inaccurate view of St. Lucia.
