I love this channel, and everything that you all do. Not only are you teaching us how to cook certain meals and delicacies, you all are informing and educating us about what we're cooking as well. More importantly (to me) you guys are spreading and being unofficial ambassadors of your country's culture, which I really appreciate. I can't wait to try this recipe for oil down as it looks scrumptious.
27thAve you have no idea how much your support means to us. Ultimately this is why we do what we do, to highlight and showcase all the wonderful aspects of trinbagonian culture that we may sometimes take for granted. Truly appreciate the feedback.
Could not have said it better than @Eatahfood but trust me the continued support and love you have for us is amazing. It's people like you who help push us and help us to continue grow. Sending our love to you. Thank you my friend ❤❤❤
You are very talented! I am an International Executive Chef and I know a gifted person when I see one, and you are definitely Gifted. I tried breadfruit one day. first I roasted it, then made it into chips along with Ackee and Saltfish with Callaloo, and I fell in love with it. Dont be afraid to try something new..you will be suprised at what you can create with new things. Much love and God bless.
Hey so glad to see your version of oil-down, here in Grenada we do it a little different but I will try yours...we have dumplings in ours and we add a bit of salt-fish and smoke herring for flavor...we blend the coconut with turmeric and curry as well. Feel free to include green bananas and sweet potatoes. The best dashine leaves are the new one that are just forming and we put lots and lots, try it...
Plzz do so, and don’t eat the oildown in a hotel you would not get the real thing, the best oil down you would get is “fire wood” orrrr if a friend or loved one cooked it for you by their home, trust me!!🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩
I love the yellow breadfruit. I make items such as punch, chips, pie and fried breadfruit and saltfish. Thank you for showing me this easy way of making the oil down. Thanks again Professor for such edifying information.
My mom does her oil down completely vegetarian and does stew chicken on the side... it's quite delicious. When i make oildown, i cut my bhagi into pieces, it really is a simple and easy dish to prepare
WOW! THIS IS THE SIMPLEST FORM OF OIL DOWN I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! Well, there is a first in everything, right?! In any case, I loved the seasonings you used, and the way that you sorted them first...! No doubt, the taste was absolutely amazing! Thank you!
😍😋 looks Soo delicious I love a good oil down. I enjoyed the feature at the beginning! Great content guys, keep up the good work. This also tastes great with saltfish
I love this channel so much! You guys make these videos very relatable and easy to follow. I have tried a few recipes from you all and it turned out great! Thankyou for the information provided as well from your interview Rene.This is a cool addition to the series. I would love it if you guys show us how to make a delicious wild meat meal, and perhaps your version of buttered cassava.
I learned how to make this in Trinidad, the best food I've ever had !!!

The best oil down is with salt fish bread fruit Green Figs BONNET pepper Shadowbenny Tomatoes Lime Juice Onions Scallion. That is simple oil down don t forget the oil or else you can't call it oil down and you can eat it with a nice big buttery zaboca. That is oil down Simple finger Food.
As a chef you shouldn't say a food is weird as you did about people putting chicken in oildown...it's simply different. Not everyone eats pork or meat. You should taste the amazing flavour smoked herring gives it.
I love oil down I never made it but after this video I have to go on a breadfruit hunt , in trini it’s in abundance not so much here , my Grenadian friends grandma made it with both pigtail and chicken I never had it with chicken .. but it did taste well ...
Thanks for sharing! As I cannot get fresh breadfruit or callaloo bush here as we are sub-tropical, I’ll have to substitute with frozen breadfruit and spinach! Best wishes.
Hahaha Nubian that's such a shame! But I can try ! Dear Husband, Wherever you are please reconsider this dish as it has quickly become one of my favourites. Rest assured your wife will continue to cook with even more love when you give it another try. All the best!! Yours truly Renee.
So I saw the video before and asked for a recipe for this lol i am clearly lapsing in my EAF videos. Disregard that request in the last video lol and thank you for this recipe!
Your research should have informed you - that's Grenada's national dish...Authentic OilDown is done differently . What makes it authentic is the way the pot is packed! Never stirred , hence the nickname Steamdown!
I luv breadfruit. I make mines with salt beef. Ppl got really smart now, breadfruit is no longer wasted. Some ppl who sell it not even waiting for it to get full. They're picking it too young and bussing price on yuh. Smh
I'm one of those people who don't saute the vegetables. And BTW, freshly cooked oil down is not the most flavorful. It has a more flavorful, coconutty taste when you warm it up from the fridge the next day. I like to add turmeric and curry to my oil down. They take it to a whole other level. And here's a secret ingredient not a lot of people know about: add a little bit of sugar to it - not enough to make it taste noticeably sweet, but enough that it's just slightly sweet if you're focusing on what ingredients you're tasting.
If you want to remove the salt from the pigtail you do not have to boil it two and three times Boil it once and then soak in plain pipe water it is the fastest way to remove the salt but it will still have the flavour of pigtail I also use the smoked pigtail to add more flavour
Nah nah remember this the national dish of Grenada n nice try u did it you own way but please try the grenadain way trust me it be the best.....love u still

Love my country food 🇬🇩 my oildown love it
I luv breadfruit. I make mines with salt beef. Ppl got really smart now, breadfruit is no longer wasted. Some ppl who sell it not even waiting for it to get full. They're picking it too young and bussing price on yuh. Smh
I love taking the very ripe breadfruit and after boiling it, i make a punch /smoothie .
Wow, I’m shocked that you never ate it before. Great job!
Lydia Beckles I suppose I just didn't know what I was missing. Lol

Do u have to use the dasheen leaves
my fav dish
If you want to remove the salt from the pigtail you do not have to boil it two and three times
Boil it once and then soak in plain pipe water it is the fastest way to remove the salt but it will still have the flavour of pigtail
I also use the smoked pigtail to add more flavour
🇬🇩 Grenada national dish(oil down)🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩
Great recipe chef
Love the video..very educational and chicken oildown does taste bess...
Jeniffer Khan-Beal thank you! Hmm giving me ideas... Curry breadfruit oildown with chicken?!!
eatahfood sounds great...with imagination we can create anything..
I want to taste it ! Maybe one day I will try it 😊😊😊
Renee Andrews u will definitely love it..sometimes the food we might think sounds weird..actually is d perfect combo or marriage..
Try making an authentic Grenadian oil down..it tastes way better and we don't stir the pot at ALL
Invite us over, we'll love to come and learn the Grenadian way
I like your pot. I brought one from Trinidad to Oregon US but lost it one summer
It looks delicious, but my technique is different, I learnt from my grandparents and they loved in Calabash and love their enamel utensils as well
The only addition I like is green fig, but my mother-in-law puts other provisions in, like dasheen and eddoes.
Respect...🙏🏿💯🌹💖
Hi love your cooking nice.
I wish you've displayed the prepping of the breadfruit...... other than, that great video.
I want to eatahfood
Wait... never had??? You’re not a trini lol.. just kidding. Am glad you made it and tried it. Gonna try it your way also
Grenadian oildown is much better
tell us about it. what in it that makes it better. I really want to know. love cooking WI food.
Why isn't bread fruit an export to the United States in America,it would be a great addition ....
YES you Can get bread in the us a in the Spanish international stores
Nah nah remember this the national dish of Grenada n nice try u did it you own way but please try the grenadain way trust me it be the best.....love u still
We don't cook our "NATIONAL DISH" like that but nice try at least it's not soup.....
Canned coconut or real grated coconut
Missing a couple significant ingredients curry or saffron
That's not how you make Grenadian oildown.
Oil down is grenada national dish that's not how we make it. Sorry.
We done give a sh,t how you cook your oildown
This is not a Grenadian Oil Down for sure! Oil Down is Grenada's National Dish... not made like this.
It's Trinidadian
It wasn't meant to be Grenadian...please know that this is A TRINI station. She is showing you a Trini version....thanks🙄
@@colleenslocombe LFMAO but you guys get upset when others are making a Jamaican doubles or a Guyana stew.... please
I detest shadon Beni in Creole based food...too too powerful
Done care
What the hell she making, that’s not oil down dwl what😂😂😂😂😂😂oh no no no
