I just love your channel! You have taught me how to make so many wonderful Jamaican dishes that I was afraid to make for my husband who is Jamaican. Thank you! But I gotta pay closer attention to how to perfect a dumpling. Lol

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Andreia Burke if you want to cook like a Jamaican you've got to perfect those dumplings LOL!

[@MsRelaytionships]

+Cook Like A Jamaican Lol! I know right. As I type this post my hubby is out BUYING some dumplings, which I could have made them myself.

[@VampTwinkie]

Its hard to find pumpkin where I live, cuz apparently its "seasonal"' lol so I substitute with with Acorn Squash for the texture...i love cooking soup, its so easy

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+A Cleric name Femboi good tip! Butternut squash is also a good substitute.

[@NaturelDeese]

A Cleric name Femboi thank you.

[@2BryteDayz]

Can I make a version of this with veggie meat? What is the texture of the meat after you cook it?

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+2Bryte Dayz veggie meat? The texture of the stewing beef should be tender

[@kdalma2003]

I usually grate the pumpkin and put it in....?

[@TheJackielajohn]

Can someone explain what type of beef that was? And what did she put in the pot with the beef to turn the water yellowish? I am a little lost with this recipe!! Thanks

[@TheJackielajohn]

Ok I see stew beef. Only have the second part of my question

[@TheJackielajohn]

Good to hear you're enjoying the summer, praise God. Will you be in Jamaica over the christmas season? I will be until the new year, I haven't been there for Christmas since 1995, so this will be a treat. Anyhow glad that all is well with you and family. Look forward to more of your videos/teaching/fun

Cook Like A Jamaican Well glad that you're posting more content. Just to let you know I have received my "Cook like a Jamaican" vest & apron & they are looking very nice.

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+David Jay thanks you so much for buying a Cook Like A Jamaican vest and apron!! We'd love to see a photo of you wearing one. Enjoy!

[@janesamuels7714]

+Cook Like A Jamaican Hi I posted my image of me wearing my apron in fact I just took it off to get ready for bed. 😆

[@kristibennett2789]

I have a question.. I know how to clean chicken using vinegar but do you use it to clean beef as well? Thanks!!

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Kristi Bennett (Exquisite Candles) no. If you want you can give it a quick rinse with water and pat dry

[@cammoxx]

Beg you some Miss Faye

[@ChefRafi]

Interesting you call chayote chocho. In Australia they say chokoes.

[@sandralondon6593]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@resipsaloquitur13]

What would a Jamaican eat if suffering from flu/cold?

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Seeds When it's nite time Soup... it's the universal remedy

[@rickyrich3855]

it's a pumpkin soup w/ beef and vegetables

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Ricky RICH You're right, but for some reason we call it beef soup and don't give the pumpkin much credit LOL

[@rickyrich3855]

Yeah bcuz your mom said the pumpkin is a"must" loll, so it's pumpkin soup practically loll

[@peterfrancis524]

Why don't you put pimento (allspice berries) in the soup? I notice you don't use that ingredient very much. Pimento is what gives Jamaican dishes that authentic island flavor.

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+peterfrancis524 I put it in red pea soup not this one. You can though

[@TheJackielajohn]

Can someone explain what type of beef that was? And what did she put in the pot with the beef to turn the water yellowish? I am a little lost with this recipe!! Thanks

[@mopomopo100]

Pumpkin

[@MsAutomaticPrincess]

She most likely used chunks of stewing beef and the yellow colour was from the pumpkin she added

[@TheJackielajohn]

+MsAutomaticPrincess thank you sweety

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+jackielajohn dejavu Glad you got your answer. Our Cook Like A Jamaican community is the best! We love Team Fay!

[@lindabrown0]

.........stewing beef, or you can use beef shank. The tougher cuts are usually used for soups. The package of pumpkin/beef soup mix changed the colour of the water in the pot but if you didn't want to use the package mix (salty !), a piece of fresh pumpkin would do the same thing.
