Jamaican Red Pea Soup Recipe Video

[@dunny5657]

Listening to you makes me both happy and sad, reminds me of my mum who passed 7 years ago

[@michelleandreya7208]

Haven't cooked red peas soup since my mum passed in 2005, so I was glad to find your video, refresh my memory and have my siblings over for soup last Saturday just like old times. Tasted sooo good & brought back wonderful memories. Thank you🙂🙏🏾

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

Thank you for watching. Glad you found us!

[@shaer4870]

Thanks for the video mum, I know when I see you cook anything it's gonna be BLESSED! Keeping traditions alive. Thank you.

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Shae R will do. Thank you for watching!

[@Hickatee]

from time I heard Beres at the beginning I knew it would taste good!

[@sevenwilliams3485]

I love making and most of all eating it! So glad I know how to cook traditional Jamaican food. Love my culture. Thanks for this vid I'm gonna make some Saturday 🙌🏾🇯🇲🇯🇲

[@Kharleyable]

I watched this video about 3-4 times. My pot is on the stove bubbling and it smells delicious. I actually had to run out and buy a bigger pot since I put a full pack of red peas (1lb) to soak. Thank you so much for making this video. Keep up the good work and thanks for helping the rest of us to be better cooks.

[@michelleandreya7208]

Kharleyable 😂😂 I feel you on that! forgot how much the peas swell up once soaked & cooked

[@jeselyncaraballo]

So happy I found your channel!!! Love me some Jamaican food 😋. Definitely making this.. Brought back memories when I used to take care of my Jamaican patient.

[@shortythepresident3913]

Marry me and you'll have all the Jamaican food you want !

It's been many, many years since I last tasted red pea soup when my mother used to cook it on Sunday's. We cook it just about the same way in the Virgin Islands except I think we add a bit of sugar. I'm prepping my ingredients from now 'cause I gon make it tomorrow. Thanks a million!

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+VIpoison911 Thank you for watching! Happy to help. Enjoy!

[@kimmirving4259]

SHE IS SO PRETTY HUH?? REMINDS ME OF MY OWN MOMO...LOVE THIS TUTORIAL...

[@lornahaynes7886]

The soup looks hearty yum 😋 yum 😋😍 thanks for sharing your recipe 😊

[@koolyokam007]

For non-pork eaters, smoked turkey neck can be used to flavor the soup also. The kidney beans can be pressure cooked if you don't have time to soak overnight.

What kind of flour is best for boil dumpling?

[@sherifawilliams]

You remind me of my grandma! Love your cooking lectures!

[@jaqueenmanagement]

Another great recipe Ms. Faye!!!! I love it exactly how you made it, doesn't have to have pumpkin or irish potatoe bc it has Jamaican sweet yam & other yam. Good Job, keep them coming!

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

[@goonermunchkin2294]

The fact I eat this with rice could explain why my gut is where it is

[@missshae3919]

there is a difference between red peas soup and stew peas

[@TLC1119]

+Damian Alexander why rice no rice needed the cooked food is enough

[@goonermunchkin2294]

+TONI CHISHOLM You need to go back 30 years and tell that to my mum!

[@TLC1119]

lol oh I get it lol haha I feel ya cause my mother saw this vid and go ooh this would taste even better with rice.. lol

[@deveenh5527]

I made this at a pot lock once and the people went home and made rice for it 😂 i was like why tho?

[@Y1Tam]

Thanks for posting this video. I don’t eat pork, so I make mine with salted beef. Adding coconut milk makes it extra yum.

[@thedecembermagic]

It looks so delicious! Just by watching this video, I can already taste it :p

[@owenjwill]

CAN I GET SOME ... I just love a red peas soup... I'm going to try your recipe

[@jviarruel]

ty mum that looks wonderful.... it's how my own mum makes it. she's a Trini...

[@brownfaye]

I was supposed to use this video as a tutorial. Instead i have sat here with my mouth watering as this lady throws it down in the kitchen. I didnt take a thing in! Oh well, i have to watch again.

[@auntynam]

OH MY GOD MI WUDA EAT THIS RIGHT NOW. THIS IS EXACTLY HOW MY MOTHER MAKES IT. LAST TIME I HAD THIS WAS 3 YEARS AGO WHEN I WENT HOME TO JA. I TRIED MAKING IT BUT I JUST CANT GET IT NICE LIKE MY MOMMY.

[@lastofthe70schildren70]

I love this soup!

[@TheRealMarisela]

I love this lady and her cooking! Im sure going to try this recipe... Thank you ❤️

[@TechyRodsWire]

So hungry now for this soup!!! Gonna try make this

[@foreverblissful101]

I love using your recipe as a guide! It helps fill in the gaps form when my parents were teaching me to cook and gave me no sense of measurement, stove heat or time 😂. I think it’s interesting though, I never soaked the peas or any other beans before cooking them. I remember growing up watching my parents just throw the dry beans in the pot(not a pressure cooker, those were too expensive). I tried soaking once but didn’t see a difference in cooking time. 🤷🏿‍♀️

[@islandgirl3330]

Thanks Fay for such a good video. I have been making all kinds of peas based soups lately and this confirms that I am on the right track. I usually throw in whatever I have in the house. I never tried the red beans soup but usually buy it. I will try it the way you have done it next time. I will miss out the pig tails if I am cooking for some of my friends, though.

[@hayleywallace3146]

Making this tomorrow for my hubby 'cause I'm putting him on a soup diet/cleanse:) It looks great M'aam!

[@pinkduvetdiva]

That looks so good!

[@valphil6874]

I've been looking for this recipe since one of the parents me some here at the school where I work. Thank you😘😘🙌🙌

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+val phil thank you for watching! Glad you found us!

[@AudriusMikalajunas]

The best soup ever! Very healthy and very delicious. Thank you for the video how to cook it. P.S.no need to put inside coconut milk?

[@nerodiamante9441]

As a non trenton after I mek mine with or without the beef. Your video and music choice was great Mumzy x

[@GoranMak]

Sweet potatoes and yams here in Malta are very expensive. Can I substitute it with turnips or potatoes, and green plantain? Or would it be too sweet? Also, you said we can use ham hocks. I've heard you can use smoked meat in this dish. My ham hock is smoked...will it work? Thanks! xo

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+GoranMak all your suggested substitutions should work nicely and not make it sweet. Let us know how it goes!

[@GoranMak]

Cook Like A Jamaican Thanks I think the weekend will be the time to do this then. xo

[@sgbarrett]

I just love your video's, you are such a treat to watch. :)

Living in the United States I don't have access to a lot of Jamaican spices and stuff but I try to make with what I have

[@Miossoty1]

can we jus pressure cook the peas and pigs tail...

looks so good

[@janetcousins8287]

For convenience pre-cooked, canned red peas (kidney beans) may also be used. I find that most brands of the product, which I have purchased, are of good quality retaining texture, colour and taste. Also for me, no red peas soup is complete without the inclusion of yellow yam, pumpkin, carrot, Irish potato and coconut milk

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Janet Cousins Yes, canned peas can work but the firmer the better.

[@AhavaYah]

Looking good !

[@TheRasta4ri]

how does smoked turkey flavors the red peas ?

[@ladycher007]

you can make it with smoked turkey good choice for those that don't eat pork or beef. will have a little smoky taste but can be very nice. i think she didn't film the coconut milk going in but you add it when peas are cooking alone small baby can will do as well.

[@sunshineposhpetboutiquellc4425]

good work. keep them coming

[@prettyBrown11]

Is the salted pig tail the same as smoked pigtail??

[@tttisanttt]

hi! is there anything non-pork i can use change in for the pig tails?

[@koolyokam007]

You can use smoked turkey necks

[@bhigdaddymark]

LOVED this video (the evident motherly easy demeanour of the host) and recipe! In comparison to the other red pea soup recipe videos, I noticed your version didn't include coconut milk, a scotch bonnet pepper (which you addressed) to name a couple of items. For faster cooking, I'm a fan of pressure cooker use and will also skip using the scotch bonnet in fear of it bursting. As a vegetarian, I'll leave out the meat and as a diabetic, I'll leave out the starchy vegetables. Otherwise I'm expecting my first time cooking my favourite soup (after Butternut Squash soup and New England Clam Chowder) to hopefully come out as good as the red pea soup I enjoy twice a week at two different Jamaican restaurants locally. Thanks for your wonderful video. Do you have a single daughter that I can marry so that I can enjoy this and other soups weekly? Lol...

[@edithdaisies4100]

😂😂😂😂😂 Taking it beyond cooking now #great sense of humour

[@kivuvaelizabeth2564]

can I use beef instead instead of the pigtails?

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Kivuva Elizabeth this recipe already has stewing beef. You can just omit the pigs tail or replace with salted beef if you can find it

[@Orangejuiceluver]

Kivuva Elizabeth yes

[@kaseypooh1]

no pumkin,carrot,irish potatoes n coconut juice

[@Afrocentrickqueen]

You know Sherry I was thinking the same thing.

[@vpowersjojo6823]

🤣😂

[@tamarasmith1706]

Coconut juice? What?

[@Sw3etNe3ks]

@@tamarasmith1706 I think she meant coconut milk ( u know, u blend it, n extract the juice/milk) Lol

Also missing scallion and a packet of Maggie Soup.

Thank you mama

[@Josiebrave]

nice!!! but where's the coconut milk?!? That my favourite part!

[@kvocalist]

ahhhhh looks to damn good.

[@BlackSkullz09]

Does sugar goes into this?

[@08CARIB]

that was literally my first thought!

[@Dom-yv4nq]

Every island has their version of red bean soup. One staple in ours in Dominica is green fig (banana). Highly seasoned also with onions, garlic, chive and seasoning peppers. Also a bodat ma jacque (scotch bonnet) pepper is usually added whole, NOT cut up !!! The best thing to me in a soup from Dominica is the smoked pork/chicken. The is our "piece de résistance" and gives the soup a remarkable flavour.

[@lolicemitchell8225]

She never cut the scotch bonnet pepper up??? So what are you talking about...Watch the video First then comment on it

[@Dom-yv4nq]

@@lolicemitchell8225 what are YOU talking about??? Did I mention anything about the lady cutting or not cutting a pepper??? I simply reiterated what she said about NOT cutting a scotch bonnet and putting it in whole and she used pepper sauce cuz she is "scared of the heat" sheesh. I was just adding my version of things.

[@prickleb8796]

@@Dom-yv4nq you are so right my dear lol . You did not say that she cut the pepper and put it in the pot . The pepper added whole to the pot gives the soup a nice aroma and flavour and thats why i add it too . If the pepper should burst in the pot while cooking the soup then that's where people who do not like too much pepper would have a big problem lol . But men be very careful around the kitchen ......as a caribbean man who love cooking and was priviledge enough to have been brought up by a mom who had instilled the culinary art in him , The first time I decided to cook dinner for my wife ....... i have not left the kitchen since lol . Her favourite question to me is " what niceness yu making for me today my love " lol .

[@nikolahowell4601]

why do I never see any seasoning being used? there's no way you can make soup without seasoning

[@CookLikeAJamaican]

+Nikola Howell visit our website for the complete recipe instructions

[@ladycher007]

i think she didnt film it but you can see the creaminess of coconut or just add small baby can.

[@dnoray1]

Very nice but you didn’t add coconut milk and the dumplings are big they’re not spinners-:)👍😀

[@tamarasmith1706]

This goes to show most Jamaican people cook differently since I've always had red peas soup with an abundance of peas, the seasoning, chicken foot or back and not much else. Definitely not any yellow yam or sweet potato though

[@tamarasmith1706]

And spinners is a must
