    About this ebook

    This book contains your favorite dishes as well as mine. Like most West Indian women, my stepmother who raised me from the age of five, after my dear mother passed away, was an excellent cook and always did her own cooking, regardless of the fact that we had a helper. I spent my early years in a boarding school where it was against the rules to even visit the kitchen, hence I was unable to gain even a firsthand knowledge of the art of cooking.

      I wish to extend my profound gratitude and appreciation to my daughter, Ava. I owe a debt of thanks for her expertise in assisting me with her God given artistic talents, with regards to the many images in this Cookbook, as well as other help.

      In all her undertakings she always aims for the best she can be and not just the mediocre. This was also a time of deep loss for me and the family so the need for help was even more recognized. She was also my official taster and this entailed a lot of tasting.

      Again, many thank Ava.

      Introduction

      Dear friend,

      This book contains your favorite dishes as well as mine. Like most West Indian women, my stepmother who raised me from the age of five, after my dear mother passed away, was an excellent cook and always did her own cooking, regardless of the fact that we had a helper. I spent my early years in a boarding school where it was against the rules to even visit the kitchen; hence I was unable to gain even a firsthand knowledge of the art of cooking.

      On entering my teens, whenever I was home on holidays, I would always observe with awe when meals were being prepared and hoped that one day I would be able to do likewise. At that time, this seemed an almost impossible task. I tried my hand whenever I had the opportunity and gained experience as time went by, much to my delight. Although, to this day, I have never had any culinary training, I discovered that by tasting or savoring a meal I was able to prepare it with fair results.

      It was, nevertheless, after I had married and had my own family that I obtained real experience, and I realized I had a penchant for cooking and within a short time became quite adept at it. Both my husband and I like to entertain, and from then on, it has been smooth sailing.

      I enjoy cooking, not just for the eating, but because of the challenge and creativity involved. I spend a considerable amount of time, on occasions, preparing for informal dinner parties as well as birthday parties for my husband and children just so that everything turns out well. I even assisted in catering my stepson’s wedding of three hundred guests, which, to date,
