BANANA HARVEST! The RARE Gros Michel...Robusta, Lacatan, Valerie & More 😎🍌🇯🇲

🔥STORE: www.raskitchen.com 🔥
🎥Matthew's other Channel: bit.ly/EarthlyEats 🎥
More rain, more rest!
This is one of the RAREST bananas around today..the elusive GROS MICHEL! It was a total blessing to find some ripe ones and get to taste it right off of the tree. We pick some Robusta, Lacatan, Valerie, Apple, Honey bananas, and even some Horse & One Arm Bandit plantain.
We find and taste test some guinep, check out the raging river, and sample this epic banana with guests MJ & Darius.
bless up,
Matthew & Mokko

Mokko is like many Rasta I have known. People who don't know them would say they are poor. People that do know them and how they live consider them rich. They provide for themselves without anything but knowledge of environment and how to manipulate it. Rich people know how to self sustain without other people to sustain them.

[@a-sheepof-christ9027]

I have rarely seen such a rich life as Mokko lives. People who consider his life poor are just too distracted to see the truth. In Eden the Red-Earthen-Man (Adamah) was living a good life up until the partaking of the fruit.

Matt luckiest guy on earth for hanging out with the coolest family in Jamaica

[@ZebbMassiv]

Keep banana peels in a bucket and let them brown. Use that bucket and part out ten buckets of water. Towards those ten buckets, add a heaping teaspoon of wood ash to each bucket. Use those ten buckets towards pretty much any plant in it's flower phase. Sit back as your results double in half time. Botany. Respect. Ital ferti recipes

[@kyafikaloo7268]

Love this one......one of my favorite moments as a girl growing up here in Jamaica was when we wud go bush and find a whole bunch of ripe banana just like mokko just did. Gros michel too and same as with mokko the rats always beats us to it. Brought saltfish with us to bush dig some yam and my mom would make roast yam and saltfish for lunch while me my brother and my stepfather walks around picking jackfruit breadfruit green banana orange tangerine sugar cane and coconut some times mangoes too. Worst part of all this is the people u pass on the road on our way home would beg some of what we hv. My mom of course would give them, but I hated that they didn't know how heavy those things were to carry on our heads walking over half a mile sometimes a whole mile from bush to where they were so they can beg and get. This use to irritate me

[@yanikeonpurpose]

Not totally related, but it would irritate me when me & my dad would go anywhere at all! Because this man would stop & talk to the whole damn world. 🤣 It would take us ages to get anywhere. Further down in life I would send him barrels, only to find on one trip he was bagging up everything I bought & distributing them to people 😅. Man I was so mad! ... But I’ve come to realise now as an almost 40 year old woman that this is Jamaican life. It is a very communal lifestyle. The West in comparison is very individualist. This is why I’m relocating back home. I can’t live without these values anymore 💔

[@RSR423]

Living free and from Mother Nature's food store is how human beings were always supposed to live, like it tells you in scripture. Your childhood sounds wonderful, and much better than eating the garbage they call food now .

[@trelawnny]

Oh Matthew that was a treat... Natural and unfertilized. Call me envy🤦🏾🤭🤭💯

[@gervanmyers3066]

Guinep is similar in texture and taste to Lychee...RATTY gone foreign he's requesting clothes for the Dog...Jamaica gone foreign🤣🤣🤣

[@dianalewis8548]

Yeah that was funny.

[@cleo63100]

Yes. The guinep is a small, sweet fruit which is very popular in Jamaica. The fruit is very similar to a lychee (in fact, Jamaicans sometimes call lychees "Chinese Guineps"). The fruit is of a similar size, grows in bunches and has a similar textured skin. The skin of a guinep is, however, lime green in colour.

[@RasKitchen]

Nothing like lychee to me, lots of fruit on them compared to a guinep!

❤❤❤👍🏻 Great vlog. Love the organic farm and seeing the river come down. Matthew, you and the crew have done great with this channel. Please continue to guide and assist Ras Mokko on the business aspect and with marketing etc, as I know he's not tech savvy. Tell him to let his son and daughter learn how to drive, to help him with his vehicle. He needs to incorporate them more into his business. ❤❤❤❤👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@dogfishhead123]

I love using the flowers in a salad!!

[@dianalewis8548]

Thanks Matt for that info. Had no idea there were so many and I lived in Jamaica for months with my hubbie. So many types of mangoes too. Pure healthy food. Here in Babylon too much processed food. Organic is very expensive. Mokko should have a podcast to discuss veggies and fruits. Feed that puppy. Too skinny. One love. Enjoy your weekend 😘🥰😍

[@Junjo11]

There is food all over the farm for the puppy. Not every puppy should be fat.

The banana flower is a delicacy in India and south east Asia,the South Indian way of cooking,peel outer layer exposing the white flowers remove the stigmas inside,cut small and saute with onion, cumin, chopped green chillies and grated coconut ,eat with rice - yummy!

[@1000nitrous]

Mokko so glad to see you I really Missed watching you. I love the knowledge you have and the way you tend to your crop you don't miss a beat. I am in the USA and I want to grow bananas and breadfruit tree 🌴 will it grow here?

[@verendradialsingh4869]

Once it don't get to cold it will grow they have them in Florida

[@Toomuchbullshitt]

They’ll also grow in Southern California with at least a year or two of winter protection. But not some tropical plants like coconuts or breadfruit.

[@skeletor9446]

So jealous. I'm glad you got to try the bananas, after my son is older, we'll visit mokko and have one too.
