To everybody talking about seasoning… THIS IS SOUL FOOD!! You don’t eat soul food to worry about your blood pressure 😂! It’s not supposed to be healthy, it’s supposed to be as flavorful as possible!! Pepper doesn’t raise blood pressure, there’s seasonings outside of salt. There’s NO excuse not to season Country Style Soul Food!!!!!

@disguiseddv8ant486 Ай бұрын

What is "soul food"? Preparing fried foods, boiling vegetables, and heating things up in the oven isn't "soul food". Everyone season and make this food. The food is from other cultures. It's just stolen culinary dishes on one plate.

@TobiramaSenju212 Ай бұрын

Fact.

@disguiseddv8ant486 Ай бұрын

What is this "soul food" anyway? Because all that I'm noticing is a plate full of store bought easy to prepare of different cultures food. This is why most of the items are fried foods.

What on earth is happening?! I recently ordered oxtails, rice, peas, and cabbage from a Caribbean restaurant, only to find it severely lacking in seasoning. Is it conceivable that we're witnessing a generation of restaurateurs who have neglected to grasp the fundamentals of properly seasoning food, which is a basic but critical culinary skill?!

@torianwilkins3986 Ай бұрын

Try Caribbean Hut in Gastonia. I love their food. Make sure you get light gravy tho 😆

@MfYouBetterSTFU-hv8xw Ай бұрын

Your biggest mistake was eating oxtails from carribeans when it’s a black American thing especially in Texas and Louisiana. Jamaicans make their beef meets with the same bitter broth as for that n Guinness tasting brown BS or it tastes incorrect which is because they use brown sugar in it

Facts but then you gotta people sayin "fOoD iS bEeTteR nO dRowNneD iN sEasOnInG" like bruh there's a different between well seasoned and over doing it. You can literally tell by looking how much you put in. And no seasoning at all is just terrible idk how some people got it in their head no seasoning is healthy or somethin cause it not that's just a lie.

Born and raised in CLT and this man is spitting facts. Prior to me relocating 3 years ago I was disgusted by the ‘soul food’ restaurants there.

@disguiseddv8ant486 Ай бұрын

Have you had fried chicken, fried fish, bbq beef or pork ribs, sweet/mash potatoes, pasta, some type of bread that used cornmeal, vegetables, rice, Kraft mac n cheese, or a cabbage dish? The term "soul food" is used because this group doesn't have an identity here in America because most do not know where they're from. This "soul food" is nothing but stolen culinary dishes served on one plate. I've even seen a video in California with some food trucks making "soul food" tacos. Everything was store bought goods to make a cheap basic taco.
