Girl you did your research well! I am Trini and you have passed the test with “flying colours” 💯. This is the favourite of most Trini’s including myself. ❤️🇹🇹🇬🇾

[@candythaglamcook]

Yayyy 😁 happy. Thank you

[@jenifferkhan-beal1886]

A trini in the house..looks great..I personally like to add ginger to this..but u did an awesome job..

[@candythaglamcook]

@@jenifferkhan-beal1886 I do add ginger sometimes too. It was blended in the green seasoning used to season the chicken tho so it's still in there. Thank you for stopping by. 😊

[@jenifferkhan-beal1886]

@@candythaglamcook awesome yes...keep up the great job 👏

[@charmainelittle7341]

I am a Jamaican and I love this dish very much.

[@candythaglamcook]

Awesome. It's very delicious 😊

[@yvonnejoy7962]

Lady I will not lie, you can cook. I am Jamaican and I like ALL tasty foods, I started cooking from age 5 frying eggs and plantains. I am a senior citizen now so you know I have years of experience in the kitchen, I am not easily impressed because I learned from my grandmother, and my mother in law who were excellent cooks they made mouth watering dishes. Since then I have never seen anyone cook with such passion and love as you do I can almost taste and smell your food. You made me fall in love with cooking again, especially the turkey! I love turkey but never made it your way before. 😋👍🏽🇯🇲🇨🇦

[@candythaglamcook]

Oh wow that's awesome and I know exactly what you are talking about because I'm the same way. I started cooking very young I don't know everything but I know enough which makes it hard to impress me unless the food is amazing. My husband tells me all the time I should not go out to eat because I'm never satisfied 😀 always complaining. I can immediately tell if something is good by the Ingredients used. I love when I can relate to people and they can relate to me. I truly appreciate your feedback thank you for your support and don't be a stranger, one love sister 😊❤

[@cathleenregis1981]

Girl!!! Like a true Trini. All you missing is some seasoning peppers and a Zaboca. Luv it😙

[@candythaglamcook]

Cooked this pelau today, as per your detailed instructions. The result was a very tasty, delicious pot of pelau. And yes, cooking pelau requires burning the sugar. Who says otherwise????

When was the cassareep used in this video?

[@wcsawyer77]

What if you don’t have access to the cassareep? And can’t use mushroom seasoning?

[@MielaGrace]

I love your channel!!! I've made several recipes already. I can NOT find diced pumpkin anywhere. Is there something else to use or can I just leave it out?

[@candythaglamcook]

You can use butternut squash or just leave it out just add extra carrots. Thank you so much for your support appreciate it. Have a wonderful day 😊

Yes fry them first then boil.

[@mrosaka7711]

Can you cook the chicken in liquid that long...you pan seared it, then you cooked it with the veggies then another 30 minutes

[@candythaglamcook]

Yes it was perfect not too soft or tough.

[@bibicromer5148]

Do you have to add pumpkin? I dont really like the taste of it.

[@candythaglamcook]

No you don't. You can add whatever you like.

[@yezir3675]

You cook with alot of salt 🧂

[@roca3874]

Do they call pigeon peas something else in America?

[@candythaglamcook]

I'm not sure but I found it under the name pigeon peas.

[@roca3874]

Really I couldn’t find it in the supermarket here. I checked the international aisle too

[@candythaglamcook]

@@roca3874 I used the can type by Goya Goya also has it in the dried version.

[@candythaglamcook]

@@roca3874 check again and this time look for Goya brand if you still don't find it. Maybe they are out of it.

[@roca3874]

@@candythaglamcook ok I will check thanks candy

[@jennelandrea3398]

That’s a lot of habanero do your kids eat spice? My daughter refuses to eat anything with spice and I love spice!!! No cookup no curry no chowmein 😭

[@candythaglamcook]

The peppes don't pop I remove them if I notice they're going to pop so the food don't become spicy my hubby and kids can't take the heat. All the peppers are for me😀

[@RishiSingh-cf9iv]

Stop cooking with sugar food don’t need sugar to taste sweet never know my mother cook meat with sugar

[@candythaglamcook]

Get from here with that nonsense. Cook your food the way you like it and let people do what they want.
