Bake and Shark (Jamaica/Trinidad/Tobago) on Sandwiches of History

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ต.ค. 2024
  • For today’s International Sandwich Sunday we’re headed to the Caribbean for the Bake and Shark (and not the Shark and Bake as I erroneously call it toward the end of the video. I am swapping in swordfish for the shark since sharks are in danger of over-fishing. This one is a bit of work but wow, what an explosion of flavor. And no, I don’t get paid every time I say “alright” but you’d never know it. Lol

    In Jamaica, Bake is a fried bread typically made from baking powder leavened dough. So I guess it gets its name from the baking powder.🤷‍♂

    Habaneros are incredibly close to Scotch Bonnets but I like the flavor of Bonnets more. Also, the Bonnet is spicier IMHO, but I could have just grown some incredibly hot ones.
    Speaking of that, they're incredibly easy to grow! I recommend adding a plant to your garden if you like to experiment with peppers.

    It's true about culantro. I was so hopeful that I'd like it as a cilantro sub, but MAN it was awful. I had to leave the room because the smell was so strong. People who love cilantro LOVE it. Also, you can cook it and it maintains its odor and flavor.

    Maybe it was a typo, and it was supposed to be basking shark?
    Seriously though, swordfish is definitely a good choice. I don't think I've ever had culantro, but I do have the soap thing with cilantro, so I'd probably use parsley. Since culantro is a different genus than cilantro, I would be willing to try it, but not on an extravagant sandwich like this.

    Probably when the fishermen are on the boat . When they pull in their catch shark is more than likely a "junk" fish. But knowing the shark would probably die even if thrown back into the ocean. The fishermen just use it as a cheap local fish.

    This has nothing to go with Jamaica. It was created in Maracas beach, Trinidad. Andrew Zimmerman called it the best fish sandwich he ever had. I have no idea why you are associating it with Jamaica. I've watch several Jamaican TH-camrs visit Trinidad, they all have never had shark. Shark is not eaten in Jamaica. Further more, chadon beni (a key ingredient in trini cooking and one kf yhe sauces you'll find on bake and shark) is not used at all in Jamaican cooking.
