Thanks for representing SK . The way you make your johnny cake is definitely the way we do it. My parents did it that way and so do I. I just sub your channel have to support my island folks.
Not me here searching for videos on how to make Johnny cakes and come across my past student. Good to see you Juvandy and thanks for sharing the video.
Hello great job! I'm from SK as well. You did a great Job!! Looks really good. I'm making Johnny cakes and selfish right know. Biggin you up from Japan. Awesome.. I'm using coconut milk today..
SKN Massive! I usually make Johnny cakes without measurements...most of the island dishes I make are without measurements...nothing wrong with that. That is actually the right way to do it. :-)
My grandmother didn't show me using measurements either lol. But I understand for someone trying to learn and make it that's why I did my best to share. Thanks for watching 🤗
@@ItsJuvandy Lol! I know. I remember someone saw me eating banana fritters and he asked for the recipe...all I could do was tell him the ingredients and explained that I have never measured the ingredients. Lol! He was confused. You are welcome...I get excited when I see my fellow Kittitian. 😊
I would say medium heat for about 5 minutes on each side. Until they get golden brown. You also don't want the heat too high because the outside would cook too fast and the middle would be raw. Also, I've never tried it with baking soda so not to sure. It couldn't hurt, I would just let it rest first

Something went wrong on my making this....to salty with 2 tablespoon,and dough was hard to roll out. I eat these cakes at st kitt while on a cruise,,really like the chicken or fish on them like a sandwich. They were touch of sweet. I did use cold flour and refrigerator crock butter..can u help
Hi Pat, happy to hear you liked the Johnny Cakes on your visit! It definitely should not be too salty thou. It should be 2 tbsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt. Maybe you mixed up those 2 ingredients? As for the dough being hard, how long did you let it rest for before frying? You should always let the dough rest, while covered, for at least 30 mins so the baking powder can get the dough nice and soft. Always happy to help!
The first part looks just like the way Bojangles makes biscuits in North Carolina. They use shortening instead of butter. If you folded a few times and baked these in the oven, you'd have great biscuits!
When you add the salt to the water and the flour doesn't take all the water, then the dough will lack salt, so I prefer to add salt straight to the flour
St kitts in the House ,🇰🇳🇰🇳 my favorite food and thanks for Representing Sugar city 🥀
It's a necessity! Lol

I used your recipe and made this for the first time and they turned out great! I was so excited for my first time! Thank you!🎉

Excellent tutorial. Thanks. I like the idea of putting the salt in the water and leaving the dough overnight. I will definitely try this recipe.
It makes a huge difference! Thank you for watching 🤗

Lovely SKN Johnny cakes ❤👌
Using this recipe to make my Nevis man this. 💙 thank you sis.
Love to hear it! Enjoy 😊
She said "Haad" love my sk people 😂
What kind of flour are you using self rising or all purpose.? Also, do you need to use milk. Can you omit milk or substitute it..?
I used all purpose flour for this. Also yes! You can omit the milk and just use the salted water 😊
@@ItsJuvandy Very nice. Thank you. I will be making this.
Let me know how they turn out!
Kititians make the best Johny Cakes.
I've only ever had St. kitts johnny cakes so I'm biased lol!
Yes, they do.
A who tell yuh?
Thanks for sharing. How long to fry each side, and can baking soda replace the baking power or can one use less baking power?
I would say medium heat for about 5 minutes on each side. Until they get golden brown.
You also don't want the heat too high because the outside would cook too fast and the middle would be raw.

Fabulous! Thanks

I never thought about baking them! I might try that!
That's the way my mama used to make them 🇰🇳
Thanks
hey where is the grated coconut in the johnny cake?
I did not use coconut for this but you can add it with the dry ingredients.
Kittitian all the way they look delicious
Thank you!
Yummy!
lol lol yellow anchor butter was the best ever
yess!!
exactly a year and day a go
Haha 2 years!
Haha was trying change it but I couldn't... your content w is nice as well .
🇰🇳🇰🇳🇰🇳 🇰🇳🇰🇳
🙌🙌🙌
Very good recipe.. but where the sugar love?? Lol
You definitely can add sugar! I've had a few sweet ones but I think those would be considered "festival" or "bakes" instead of Johnny Cake.
New St.kitts native subscriber🤍
Thank you for the support 🤗
St kitts AND Nevis thank u😒 great vid tho
Thank you - I always mention Nevis in my videos as well.
Wait no sugar is added to this Jonny cake recipe
You can definitely add sugar but I didn't grow up with sweet johnny cakes.
Yeah I had to add sugar to minds aswell lol.
It is not common for Kittitians to add sugar; however, I have done it before and I prefer them without sugar. 🇰🇳
Dough too stiff.
It definitely wasn't. Thanks for watching!
