Tonight, I made this with your johnny cake recipe. Both were a hit with my family. My son said, "Mommy, why does Bahamian food taste so good?" I am glad that I am able to share a taste of my childhood with them. My parents immigrated to Freeport from Haiti before I was born. I left the Bahamas at 13 and never really got a chance to learn how to cook Bahamian food (sure did love to eat it though). Now they get to experience wonderful foods from Haiti and the Bahamas. All of your recipes that I have tried turned out delicious. Thank you, Melda.

Another tip is to cut the onion with the open side down. The fumes which make you cry will travel towards the cutting board instead of up.

I completely messed mine up, I think I went to light on the salt. So a small cheat is if at the end the flavors aren't really coming together, add a little bit of Chicken broth to taste. I added like a quarter cup and it made up for my mistakes.
