About this ebook

This Jamaican Cookbook is a collection of Jamaican recipes, handed down from generation - to - generation with the addition of the newest recipes called Jerk Jerk cooking has become a favorite of the Jamaican people and has now spread throughout the Caribbean, the United States, Canada and England. I have exchanged recipes with family members throughout the years. The ingredients and produce used in these recipes are grown in Jamaica and is available at many retail stores. Jamaican women have a flair for cooking hence they handed down the trait to their siblings. I am a product of Jamaica, born in the Parish of Manchester; my family consisted of 12 children. Our parents grew their own vegetables, fruits, spices, and livestock. I hope these recipes will be helpful especially to those Jamaicans living aboard, and will also help to keep the culture alive.
