what an experience!!! ❤️🔥 I couldn’t come to Jamaica and not learn about their famous dish jerk. the art of jerk cooking, involves marinating meat in a mixture of spices and slow-cooking it over pimento wood. jerk originated with indigenous peoples of Jamaica from the Arawak, Taíno tribes, and was carried forward by the Jamaican Maroons in the 17th century. The Maroons were Africans that broke free from enslavement in Jamaica & took refuge in the mountains, forging self sufficient communities & connecting deeply with the land. The jerk marinated meats were often cooked slowly in underground oven pits to minimize the smoke so that not to give their locations away. It was also a technique used to preserve meat. Jerk is more than just a dish!!
Jamaica, thank you for the beautiful experiences! ❤️
