I Tried Making Pelau with Pearl Barley and Can't Stop Eating It

I Tried Making Pelau with Pearl Barley and Can't Stop Eating It
What set out as an experiment to prove that Pearl Barley can be used to make our national dish (that's pelau, in case you didn't know) actually turned out to be an "aha" moment. Instead of it being "pelau" or "pearl-au", what we actually made was a RISOTTO. We knew the flavour of the pelau will hit all the right notes because we started with a good foundation - browning the sugar until it became frothy with swirls of dark and light brown caramel, adding well seasoned chicken, all of the usual aromatics - garlic, ginger, thyme, chives etc, butter of course for that extra lux and bay leaf. The barley was rinsed to remove excess starch and cooked briefly with the chicken before adding the peas and the coconut milk, which is a MUST when making pelau. We were hoping for a medium pelau - not too wet, not too dry—but what we got was a surprise. Imagine sinking your teeth into your first spoonful (or forkful, if you are so inclined) but being greeted with a creaminess and smoothness that not even a wet pelau could achieve. That's what we didn't bargain for: the barley took on a smooth, creamy consistency that tricked our brains into thinking we were eating a risotto but the flavour was pelau...like WHAT?! Each bite got better and better because no one has ever described pelau as creamy, but this one was, and it was addictive. When doing a cooking experiment, the are three possible outcomes - whether the result meets, exceeds, or fails to meet expectations. Similar to scientific experiments, cooking experiments involve creating a hypothesis and observing the results. Failure: The dish failed to meet expectations—for example, being burnt, undercooked, having a poor texture or simply not working. Success/Validation: The dish turned out as expected—which, at the time was a given, at least to us. Discovery/Unexpected Result: The dish differs from expected but remains usable or enjoyable. In our case, we were on a road to Discovery and didn't realize it because the dish was not just usable or enjoyable, but groundbreaking. We will never look at barley the same again and neither pelau LOL! #barley #pelau #barleyrecipe ▼Chicken Pelau Recipe: https://eatahfoodtt.com/mmhmm/chicken-pelau/ ▼Follow Us On Twitter For Updates: https://www.twitter.com/eatahfood ▼Follow Us On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eatahfoodtt Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsAljuMe2_TZgFQYq8OqEEA/join

A Good Friday Fry Fish - An Easter Tradition In Trinidad & Tobago

A Good Friday Fry Fish - An Easter Tradition In Trinidad & Tobago
Like so many places around the world, food plays a central role in a lot of our cultural traditions here in Trinidad & Tobago. The tradition of eating fish on Good Friday is rooted in Catholic and Anglican customs where followers of the faith abstain from eating the meat of animals which are considered warm blooded like chicken, lamb, beef and pork. However fish is allowed. This practice of abstinence is meant to share in Christs' sacrifice. And while I grew up practicing islam in a muslim household, this tradition is not something unfamiliar to me. And that's the beauty about living in Trinidad & Tobago. We often pay respects to other traditions that make up the cultural tapestry of this nation through food. Of course you could go to the grocery and pick up chilled or frozen fish to make your Good Friday Meal. But personally, I enjoy taking a drive up the North Coast Road to head up to Las Cuevas to get fresh fish from the Fishing Depot. Some people get squeamish around the blood and guts that's an inextricable part of buying fresh meat. But just like going to farms and seeing farmers work the land and reap their crops, I appreciate the experience as a reminder that food does not magically end up in the supermarket and our plates. There are real people doing actual labor who we depend on for sustenance. And I think it is always important for us to celebrate all the people who play a part in feeding us. On Good Friday King Fish also known as King Mackerel is the popular choice. So it was only right that I bought some but for the Fry Fish that I made for my Good Friday meal I opted for Bachine which is a type of Barracuda. It is much cheaper than King Fish, coming in at half the price. And while i've never tried stewing it, it is perfect for frying. #fry #fish #seafood ▼Website: https://eatahfoodtt.com/mmhmm/chinese-style-fish-broth/ ▼Follow Us On Twitter For Updates: https://www.twitter.com/eatahfood ▼Follow Us On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eatahfoodtt Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsAljuMe2_TZgFQYq8OqEEA/join
