🇸🇷 Food & The Single Guy - S.01.09 - Pom By AMARU

[@89149]

So this video was made 7 yr ago. Year 2020 where can i buy the pom taro root in USA? How they call it in Spanish or other language? Thanks😊

[@foodandthesingleguy]

That is going to be quite a challenge, I have to say... I have received this question soooo many times and I can honestly tell you that in all my years of being in the US, I have never been able to find it anywhere. Not even in Florida, with a reasonable Surinamese community... I wish I could offer a solution, but alas... :(

[@MyPayneCity]

In Spanish it is called yautia amarilla.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Guilliano, you are a STAR...!!! I was also raised in the Caribbean and I asked around until I was blue in the face, LOL and nobody knew anything... SO: THANK YOU! :) I did see many videos here on KZbin and I must say the species that we grow in my country looks somewhat different... The tuber raises to the surface and becomes the stam of the plant and it's that stam that we grate and use. But it may well be the same, that plant family is huuugggeee :) Thanks again, happy new year in advance ;)

We need a proper authentic Suriname restaurant in New York. It is just sad that we restaurants from many countries around the world but not from Suriname.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Maybe someday when I move back to New York I'll start my own :)

[@thalitakoem]

Thanks C. ;) According to my client it was good too, so I was pleased to hear that ;)

[@dwaynehunt3714]

Like the narrative of this video.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Thank you, I wanted to go deeper into the history of the dish and the Jewish diaspora to my native country, but the video would be too long, lol ;) But this dish is of Jewish origin, it was adopted and made more famous by our Black ancestors ;)

[@ChefRafi]

Nice video! You can buy fresh pomtayer in the States (DC area) in Latin markets. I have also seen it at a local Korean market and an African market.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Kid Chef Thank you kindly for the info ;)

[@bidaw229]

Chef Rafi's Awesome World hi what is the name of the tayer to ask for at these markets?

[@foodandthesingleguy]

The pom tayer is related to a variety of similar looking plants and their roots, but please watch this video to see what the REAL pom tayer actually is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/naLahamvrrp0lbs It's releated to "eddoe", as it's called in certain Caribbean countries or "taro", same thing, different name. Do NOT use "eddoes" to make pom, that is NOT the correct ingredient... These are "eddoes" by the way: www.alamy.com/stock-photo-taro-or-eddoe-corm-colocasia-esculenta-root-vegetable-tropical-potato-60850185.html

Glad I could help!

Hoe noemen ze pomtayer in Trinidad? Mijn broertje is in Trinidad maar hij zegt dat de mensen daar het niet kent.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Hoi, in het Engels is het bekend onder de naam TARO, maar ewr zijn natuurliojk verschillende soorten. De kleine ronde, bij ons in Suriname ook bekend als "Snesi Taya", dat noemen ze dus ook Taro, maar zeg aan je broertje dat hij naar deze moet vrahen, bekijk deze video eens: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6KylJxogbicaaMsi=EunX58T3B5pF-jfy Zo groeit onze pom tayer dus ;) Hoop dat je zo geholpen bent 😊

[@annachet5496]

@@foodandthesingleguy okay.iknzal hem gelijk melden. Hij vertelde mij dat die mensen hem zeggen dat het dasheen is .. maar wij Surinamer weten nieteens wat dat is 🤣. Schreenshot uw comment vr hem en stuur hem de link.bedank En fijne feestdagen voor u en uw gezin. Maar woond u in SU?

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Op sommige eilanden noemen ze tayerblad-achtige planten inderdaad "dasheen", dat verschilt per eiland. Laat hij de mensen de video laten zien, want anders halen ze misschien dingen door elkaar. Dank je, voor jou en jouw familie ook fijne kerst en groeten uit Nederland 😊

[@Amsterdam-tz8zq]

Hallo kun je me vertellen hoe je de salted beef tenderised? Dank.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Zeker weten ;) Je moet het zoutvlees in een pan met water doen en dan koken totdat het water tot ongeveer 4 cm. is verdampt. Daarna voeg je nogmaals water toe en herhaal je het voorgaande totdat het vlees lekker mals is... ;) Ik doe er ook altijd 2 laurierblaadjes bij en wat pimentkorrels.

[@Amsterdam-tz8zq]

@@foodandthesingleguy dankjewel!

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Graag gedaan ;)

[@laloks9318]

hi, looks so delicious, but where can I find pomtayer in usa ? really craving for it

[@foodandthesingleguy]

It is, I have to say ;) But unfortunately I don't think they sell this in the US... I tried looking online for you to no avail... :(

[@laloks9318]

thank you, been living in us long time, and craving surinaamse food so bad. but they don't sell the specerijen here

[@foodandthesingleguy]

lalo ks Where in the States do you live, which state?

[@caracazo14]

You can get it at most African or Hispanic markets. It is called "yautia" or "malanga." But I have only ever seen the fresh root sold, never the frozen paste/ powder.

[@updownup999]

Pom tayer is also the same as yellow jam in Afrika and Jamaica .

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Yes indeed, thank you Linda!

[@updownup999]

[@jasybrigde4136]

Dear no picalily??

[@foodandthesingleguy]

No, NEVER ;) I know a ton of people like to add this to pom, but traditionally that's not the way...

[@clemensclemoroos4353]

Picalilly makes pom to a shitty tasting dish. I don't know why everywhere you see picalilly in the recipes. Picalilly does not belong in pom!

[@52henko]

Hallo Amaru, heb je ook het recept voor anitri beri? Svp

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Ai, die heb ik zeker en je geeft me alleen maar honger, hahaha ;) Ik zal eens kijken wanneer ik 't ga maken ;)

[@52henko]

Hallo Amaru, laat wel weten wanneer het beschikbaar is. Tang boeng.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Aai, je zal de upload wel zien ;) Ik ben verwikkeld in een discussie over hoe men echte CREOOLSE recepten maakt en men is van mening dat mijn Creoolse recepten niet traditioneel zijn... Als iemand die CREOOLS IS en zo ook is opgevoed kan ik alleen maar lachen om die gasten... Dus omdat ik niet op een echte Blakkamang lijk, dan zijn mijn recepten niet traditioneel...??? Die rotzooi die andere zogenaamde "koks" Surinaamse recepten noemen, DAAR moeten deze Creoolse mensen naar kijken, niet naar hoe ik kook... Maar anyway... je hoort wel ;)

[@thk420]

looks so delicious, but where can I find pomtayer in usa ?I am really craving this dish.Thanks TAriq

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Tariq Khan Hi Tariq, thanks for watching, but unfortunately I have no idea where you can find pom tayer in the States... :(

[@thk420]

Ok thanks...

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Good, let me know how it turned out AND send me a piece, lol ;)

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Aai mang ;) Thanks jere!

[@lindalemongrass245]

hi! where can I find pomtayer in Switzerland?

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Linda Lemongrass I don't live in Switzerland, so I can't answer that question.

[@52henko]

Hi Amaru, lap al die waardeloze kritiek gewoon aan je laars en ga gewoon lekker verder. Wie een "traditioneel" recept wenst, die gaat dan maar naar een andere site!!

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Dus dat...!

[@foodandthesingleguy]

De "Anitri Beri" video volgt deze week ;) Stay tuned!

[@beyourself7215]

Is there an US English name for this pomtayer root?

[@foodandthesingleguy]

+Lasijem Bourdess Hi there, thanks for watching. Probably "taro root", but please keep in mind that the taro family is a large one and you have many different types... The one used for this dish is the long kind that looks like an actual stem of the plant, but in fact it's just the root that grows above ground with the leaves on top ;)

[@octoberb183]

Where can I get this I live in New York

[@foodandthesingleguy]

My dear, I'm afraid it will be very hard to come by in the States… Your best bet is to have somebody bring you some when they visit from The Netherlands or Suriname, where it grows in abundance. They do sell it grated and frozend up here in The Netherlands...

[@hermienvansoest6193]

Hi AMARU ik ga het maken ziet er heelijk uit

[@foodandthesingleguy]

Zeker doen, pom gaat er altijd wel in 😋

[@clemensclemoroos4353]

This is according to my recollection of how pom was made in the 1960's. With fresh pomtayer en a large nail stuck into it! And of course NO PICALILLY! Picalilly pom is what I find kind of an affront to the dish and I really don't like it.

[@foodandthesingleguy]

YEEEESSSS, the rusty nail was to make sure that the tayer wouldn't cause that itchy sensation these types of tubers cause most of the time. And picalilly in pom: NOT in our household!! I saw this lady on here who added TERIYAKI SAUCE in her pom, kentjor and soy sauce... I wanted to kill a hoe...!!!

[@clemensclemoroos4353]
