@@brendanmystery mannerism starts by calling it what its truly is curry/curried goat to the English police however we are Jamaicans not illiterate

@brendanmystery 2 жыл бұрын

@@sanjaybailey835 No. Culture is when you call it what it has been called by the originators. Mannerisms is just how you say certain things and act a certain way, based on your upbringing. If you grew up in a culture that is very different to the culture of your origin, then you will begin to pick up on their mannerisms. In the same way that many Chinese-Americans do not know how to speak their mother language, someone who grew up in Britain might call curried goat, goat curry.

Two beautiful dishes! Question: why chicken stock? I would think beef stock would be closer to goat. Or, does the chicken stock bring out something that beef stock would not?

@Zonked_Gamer 2 жыл бұрын

I know your comment is old. But in the Caribbean we tend to use chicken for stock since it wouldn't be considered a waste.
