Looks delicious Annette! My favorite rice!! Thanks for making it so easy..: I remember in New York my mother would buy the dried mushroom from a Haitian store. Now it’s right in Bravo!😋
I would add the shrimp toward the end, right before I cover the pot. Shrimp don’t take long to cook. You definitely do not want the shrimp to be mushy!
Looks very delicious and amazing thanks for sharing I am definitely going to try this recipe I’ve been looking through recipes for The race and your recipe looks like the best one thank you so much for sharing stay safe have a wonderful and blessed day👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏻
Hi Annette. Question: What Haitian recipes would I use Star Anise in. Also I know you no longer use Maggie but do you know where online I can get the Black Maggie?
I use star anise in Labouyi, tablet, Te Jenjanm, konfiti, liqueur ect. I will be selling the djon Djon cube and other Haitian products on my website soon. Hopefully next week, it will be ready!
I’m trying to add a healthy amount of djon djon in it and my rice won’t come out as black as seen in the video lol idk how much I’m supposed to add but shoot.
@@tahileebrown5161 .. You doing something wrong but keep trying until you get it. Next time Before adding the rice in, make sure your liquid is dark enough. Add 21/2 or 3 cubes if you need to, add or take away ingredients until you get it. That’s the art of cooking!
its so hard to find djon djon maggi in toronto, i been searching far and wide. amazon, ebay, west indian grocery stores everywhere. what can I use to still get the flavor and the colour if i cant find the maggi, cause this rice is life :(.
Nothing, it’s either the dry Djon Djon or the cubes! I will be selling them and other Haitian products on my website soon. Hopefully next week, I will make announcement!
O Mine Annette!!! Oh Mine!!! Wish you could send me a plate through UA-cam ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️! I would request in addition fried green plantains, few leaves of lettuce and tomatoes 🍅! O Lord so so so delicious 😋! Where is your restaurant at?
@@dorannette26 nice job showing this delicious meal 833 miles away! Enough to drive anyone nuts!!! Where in Florida do you fix these meals I am an out of town grandma 👵!
Great Recipe, as usual.😊 I like the mushroom water version more, as well. SN: I reached out via Instagram regarding catering services and hadn’t heard anything back😔

The Maggi Djon Djon ... contains Msg... unless there's a maggi djon djon that's Msg Free.. Now.. the Chicken Base Maggi.. doesn't have Msg and also gluten free
You’re using a spoon and eating from a folk that u didn’t wash after tasting and you’re cooking this for a friend? You said you wasn’t using MSG product!
You must be blind and Deaf!!! I put the rice in my hand and tasted it!! I also mentioned, I don’t use the cubes because of the MSG but I was making the video for those who were not able to find the fresh Djon Djon! Watch and listen carefully before you comment! I know it’s hard, to not be negative!!!
It’s hard to listen carefully when you’re not speaking clearly! That was the PROBLEM… Also, don’t be mad when you get negative comments, this is social media.
She didn't eat from the fork. She put it on the fork and then put it into her hand to taste it. She said that she is cooking it for a friend and just tasting it for the sake of that and for the video which is why she only ate a very small bite. It's spelled 'foRk' by the way. Just in case you missed that too.
I go to Haitian restaurants just for this rice and that pork griot!
Shouldn’t be eating that nasty axx pork

If you want shrimp in it at what point would you add it?
I would add the shrimp toward the end, right before I cover the pot. Shrimp don’t take long to cook. You definitely do not want the shrimp to be mushy!
@@dorannette26 add it raw before the steaming process?
@@amazinggrace313 ..yes, but make sure you lightly season your shrimp.

What was added into the oil in the beginning before the garlic
It’s called Epis, I have a video on my channel on how to make it.
What if I don’t want to use the cubes? My husband is on a low salt diet. What is the fresh one (cube)?
I have a video up using the fresh Djon Djon
@@dorannette26 Thank You! I’ll look for it.
What is the cube made out of?
Salt, Mushroom powder, black carrot juice, sugar, caramel color, cornstarch, palm oil, msg
I’m trying to add a healthy amount of djon djon in it and my rice won’t come out as black as seen in the video lol idk how much I’m supposed to add but shoot.
Did you allow it to boil for a few minutes and soak it overnight?
The volume was low. What did you add to the oil?
I added Epis, which is our green seasoning. I have two videos up on my channel, on how to make it.
What kind of rice did you use?
I used jasmine rice on this video.
I live in Orlando Florida . Where can I get the djon djon cubes ?
I sell them on my website ( sesanetcatering.com)
Beyond amazing ☺️

Do you have a video with the mushroom?

Ok. I will look again. I couldn't find it. Thanks
Hatian foods are always the greatest food🍛
What is a "charm jar"?
?
How many of these cubes for 1 cup of rice? If I need to make 3 cups of rice how many of these cubes should I use
I would used 2
@@dorannette262 didn't work for me. It didn't get as dark as yours Annette 😢 and I only had less than 2 cups of rice 🤷🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️

@@dorannette26also, you didn't specify how much rice you used i know you said 2 bowls but still 😩😩🤦🏾♀️
its so hard to find djon djon maggi in toronto, i been searching far and wide. amazon, ebay, west indian grocery stores everywhere. what can I use to still get the flavor and the colour if i cant find the maggi, cause this rice is life :(.
Nothing, it’s either the dry Djon Djon or the cubes! I will be selling them and other Haitian products on my website soon. Hopefully next week, I will make announcement!
Try chinese grocery stores. That's where I got mine.
Try Etsy
I attempted to make dire djon djon and the color of the rice did not come out black. Could you tell me what I did wrong?
You may be adding to much water.
@@dorannette26 right
Why do you add butter?
For flavor and so rice can have a nice shine!
Where can you get djon djon?
Bravo or Presidente supermarket!
Thank you! Will you be posting more cooking video?
@@Artisticeyez yes, this weekend
Thanks Annette!
Ingredients please 🙏
That's what I was looking for also🙏🏾 pray she shares it
That dish looks so good. About that fish 😋🤤
Thanks dear!
Is there a written recipe?
No, I eyeball the ingredients.
What does the Djon djon cube packaging looks like? Where do you purchase your fresh or cube djon djon?
If your in Florida, you’ll find it at bravo or presidente supermarket. If you’re not local I will be selling it on my website very soon!

Thanks, I did respond! I left my business number!
I noticed the name is different on IG, it may be someone else, send me another message! dorannette26
What exactly is Djon Djon? I've seen this rice cooked with a type of mushroom
It’s dried mushrooms
Thanks for sharing 👍
Could be much better if you right the recipe! Thanks!
I was taught to eyeball my ingredients growing up.
@@dorannette26 which is fine but for the people who wasn’t raised like that or doesn’t know how to eyeball, measurements are important
@@beejay490 .. I understand ! It took me years of practicing for me and others to master the eyeballing method. In culinary school we were giving recipes to follow but everyone dish came out different. Cooking is a art! Create awesome dishes! Thanks for commenting!
I meant to say Djon Djon rice
I understood what you were saying
In my opinion it's always better to remove the thyme before you let it steam
Thanks for your opinion but I like to remove it after the rice is cook. Everyone has their own preference!
@@dorannette26 That's true
The Maggi Djon Djon ... contains Msg... unless there's a maggi djon djon that's Msg Free.. Now.. the Chicken Base Maggi.. doesn't have Msg and also gluten free
@@OGUNWARRIOR yes, I mentioned that in the video. I don’t use it in my home but someone requested me to make it. So I did!
@dorannette26 oh okay.. sorry hun .. I understand
Yummy
Recipe ? wats the chicken base u keep using can’t make out clearly wat ur saying wit the chicken base🧐?? Or chicken something?
It is a non msg chicken base but you can use Maggie or any chicken seasoning.
I noticed everyone that makes haitian rice uses that pot. Is there a reason?
No, We are just creatures of habits! Our parents and grandparents used the same pots.
I think it is necessary to add in title that its djon djon with Bouillon cubes rather than the mushroom. Se 2 pwosedi diferan
I have a video on my channel using the Djon Djon. The title is strategic! Mèsi pou komatew-la.
Mushroom rice
Yes!
That’s a lot of oil 😮
For the amount of rice I was making, it was the right amount of oil.
Msg isn’t bad for you. Guys stop plse
Yes it is!
