Kudos David for highlighting this authentic Bajan dish. I am Bajan born and my family grew up eating this on Saturdays not realizing the time and work it takes to make this dish.

David, I've been following the vids in your Barbados series and I had to comment on this one. This was amazing! So educational! I could feel the love that Auntie Brenda put into that souse. And I really appreciate that you are treating our history and culture with respect. Never once have I felt like you viewed us bajans as caricatures. At every turn, you've treated us with the deepest respect and connected with our humanity. You came here with an open heart and mind and allowed yourself to experience our authentic culture. I wish that every visitor that came to our shores could take a leaf from your book. Please let Auntie Brenda know that she's getting much love in the comments! She's amazing. She's about to have a whole bunch of bajans showing up at her house on a Saturday morning to get some souse, lol. Tell she doan worry, we gine help wid de prep too! Many hands make light work. Also, Auntie Brenda needs her own KZbin channel ASAP! She has a buncha subscribers here waiting! This comment turned into an essay but I feel like it was necessary to express the depth of appreciation that we bajans have for this video. You've earned yourself my subscription. Looking forward to watching your other series. Keep up the excellent work!

[@audinemartindale1062]

Yes I agree that she can get a KZbin channel and do her dishes. So Craig need to se her up. She is excellent indeed.🙏🙏🙌🙌💖💖🤗🤗😍😍🔥🍷

[@brentshuffler1234]

David, congratulations on capturing so much about Barbados! This episode is very special: [1] it is over an hour; [2] it is a peek inside a Barbadian home; [3] it is a rare tour of a traditional kitchen; and [4] this is a well narrated gastronomic journey that encompassed health & safety, . . . history, . . . carefully chosen ingredients, . . . skillful uses of herbs and spices (impressive even if one does not eat meat or pork in particular), . . . attention to details at every step, . . . family traditions, stories and personal memories . . . and more.

You should try the black pudding fried the next morning for breakfast 😋

I laughed when he said pork salad lol.. Everyone asks me why I like so much souse and I tell them all d time, I does eat pork salad because I like to eat healthy 😂😂😂

[@Bigolburr]

I gotta say. My favorite thing about Davidsbeenhere (Other than his incredible massage videos,) is how much YOU, David, appreciate and ACTUALLY enjoy the food. You are: 1. Introducing me to food I have never seen before 2. Are ACTUALLY enjoying everything they throw your way This makes your videos so much more genuine and enjoyable. Very cool. Good editing / (cinematography? Is this the right word?) too. At points I almost smelled the spice XD

Wow this is such a thoughtful and kind comment Job. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. So grateful for your message of kindness and support!

I love this, It took me back 50 years but this is real pudding n souse. When I’m home they use the pig meat for souse but it’s not the same. If you make this for sale let us know because I’m sure there’re others who would love to have this old fashioned souse. Thank you for this trip down memory lane!

I have been vacationing in Barbados since 1964 and have never had curry flying fish, but it sounds yummy though. Do you know of any restaurants that serve it? I will be in Barbados for three weeks starting on February 25th.

Oh my God ! I'm a Trini' Have eaten blood pudding many times; but never knew how time consuming it was. In Trinidad though, after the pudding is prepared and boiled, the servings for the table is being fried before consuming. Usually served with home made bread. A treat for the "soul"👍 Hmmm. !!!!!!! Good stuff '

In Barbados we fry the The Puddin the next morning if it is cooked in the belly . If steamed it is microwaved .

Just watched the video. That was interesting to see how she substituted the browning for the pig's blood. Two days to allow the taste to develop. I would definitely eat it. Pass on the snout and the ears though. Craig's mom did a fantastic job. I am surprised that David didn't use his hot sauce though, but then again, maybe he didn't need it. Good thing though. Respect for Craig's mom. Great job on this one. Now let's go for a ride.🙏🕊️🇹🇹🇨🇦

One oof the best black pudding you can experience is that of any Caribbean individual that is authentic of such.Many have gone to the great beyond but their legacy lives on.I know how to but my deceased mother was boss in it that so often many purchased from her to take overseas.I glad I see this without blood .Thanks Ms Bajan for your recipe will try to use it that why but in truth and reality there are some great pudding maker on the islands of StKitts-Nevis,male and female.Dem just good.

I have been vacationing in Barbados since 1964 (except for the last 2 covid-cursed years) and have never had "Pudding and Spouse". There's a little restaurant not far from where I stay that offers it every Saturday.

💛💙🖤🇧🇧 Haven't watched your fab vids in order but THIS one with Brenda, Craig's sweetheart😍 of a mum is my FAV, Dave! L💙ve your respect for #weculture. I am aware of how much work it is but have never watched the whole puddin & souse process before. My Mom made steamed puddin without the traditional casing or belly (as most do nowadays) with NO food processor. She put us kids to grating the potato.🤦🏾‍♀️ The souse she also put in a pressure cooker. More like this with cooks like Brenda's amazing knowledge. Love how our ancestors made refuse the delicacies which endure. BTW Cou Cou Village does this traditional way. #bajan

[@brentshuffler1234]

David, [part 2] I suspect that very few of us who have lived in Barbados or the region have had a hands-on experience with this kind of days-long traditional preparation and cooking. Everything about it is hard work, patience, care, and love. With so many people no longer cooking, we must celebrate those who continue great traditions. I don't say this lightly: I think that you have recorded something that is fit for a cultural archive or museum.....educational content for history classes, geography classes, Food & Nutrition classes, tourism and hospitality schools, and even a museum.....There are many arts and forms of knowledge (this herb is good for this and that spice can be used in x ways....often medicinal and not just gustatory value) that are slowly at risk of dying.....Bloggers and videographers can help to save them and to revive them and to repackage them for global audiences. On behalf of 285,000 Barbadian residents, I say "Many thanks, David"!
