Dutch Pot

You know a real Jamaican when you see one or several Dutch pots in the kitchen. Yaad people use Dutch pots for everything (and I mean everything). We cook curry chicken, oxtail, beef stew, stew chicken, porridge, fry dumplings and even to bake pudding.

Below - I have a great deal on the best Dutch pots online.

Maggie Bouillon

This is the secret ingredient in our food. The bouillons are so popular that people prefer to buy them straight from Yard as they have superior quality.

Grace ketchup

When you need good chicken stew gravy or simple scrambled eggs and sausage, grace is the only ketchup you need. Ketchup thickens and sweeten gravy leaving it with a slight tangy after taste.

Support Jamaican companies and purchase some ketchup.

Curry Powder

Without curry there would be no curry goat or curry chicken or even beef patty. I have a great recipe for curry powder, click this link for it.

In the mean time check out these curry powders for sale.

China plates

In every Jamaican home have what we call China. These are dishes and cups that are rarely used however, they are used on rare special occasions.

Below are some China plates

Coconut powder and cream

Without coconut powder there would be no run dung, or any salt mackerel dishes. Coconut is also used in some baking recipes.

Check below for inexpensive coconut products.

Tin or Can Ackee.

You can find can ackee mostly in Jamaican kitchen who are living abroad. Can ackee is a must. Due to the fresh ackee being unavailable the can ackee is a nice alternative.

Tin Mackerel and Sardines

After you leave work hungry and tired, too tired to cook a lengthy meal tin mackerel and rice or sardines and crackers will do.

Stock up on tin mackerel and sardines in case of emergency

Scandal Bag

You will find black plastic bags in the hundreds in every Jamaican home. Even in places like New York where the government has placed a ban on plastic bags, you wilol still find many bags in Jamaican’s homes.
