Hi, my name is Cindy. I am a nurse practitioner with the heart of a foodie. I am an at-home chef who loves to create meals that tantalize tastebuds and promote health and wellness. Here I'll share some healthcare tips, recipes in my test kitchen, and the eateries discovered as I explore different cities.
I have just discovered Hsitian food through @Thatboylens and @ African Tigress, and I can tell you, I would learn your cooking recipes and techniques. Thank you do much ❤❤
True Haïtian cuisine does not use habanero peppers. It uses Scotch Bonnet peppers. They look somewhat similar and are both hot, but the flavor is definitely not the same. Also, cloves are used in dishes like du riz ak pwa kolé (rice with beans), but not in épis.
Easy to follow instructions. I will be attempting to make some of each. Cindy could use a little oomph in her presentation to appear less like she's indifferent whether people are listening or not.
Hi i just love them both I'm American can you please send me the recipe for both I'm 62 so i need to see what to pick up from the store please an thank you
I just made I just made them and they taste really good thank you for sharing this was the kind of apples we call it coleslaw but epic I like that I like it a lot and I'm going to make this all the time now it's delicious thank you so much for sharing❤
My mom is from Ecuador we call it Refrito other Caribbean islands call it Sofrito Epis with out chemical bad ingredients like Maggi in is awesome! MSG is not good!
My best friend is Haitian and she taught me how to make them both and it is DELICIOUS 😋. I LOVE Haitian culture and foods. Now that I know how to make the two I feel Haitian. I also love her Pumpkin soup and the Boulette ( I know I spelled it wrong…sorry). Great video.
What is the green stuff you added to the pot? I've seen it in another video like this and still didn't understand the word used for it. Nevermind, I found it...Epis, right??
lots of times our culture doesn't look into the nutritional facts thanks for taking your time to explain msg in maggie which is one of our staples in cooking Haitian food. i see you kept it all the way haition cooking in you mumu dress.
Hey, everyone's palate is different, and that's what makes cooking fun! I'm not sure what butter was used in the cup that you had. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy her recipe. Thanks for watching!
I kinda lost my ability to focus at the 3:04 mark. I'm going through a break up with my Haitian wife. I can live without her but I will be damned if I do without Epis!
It’s interesting to see the similarities in the ingredients used for preparing Caribbean dishes. Family from Trinidad my childrens dad Haitian his father an amazing cook. I love having my trini green seasoning, pineapple pepper sauce next to my eppis and Pikliz 😁😉 🇹🇹🇭🇹
Hi dear, Thank you so much for posting this video sister. Quick question dear, please reply to tell me "which State in USA is your location (I ask this question because I notice in this video you have access to bitter oranges (sour oranges) which I have trouble finding in NYC)?"
@@nicole618 Hi Nick, regarding the lime, the acidity helps to be a natural preservative to keep from spoiling, and it adds flavor that I like. You honestly don't taste much of the acidity when it's used to cook rice. The garlic, also is based on preference. Epis and Pikliz have very common ingredients, but you can add additional spices and herbs according to your preference. Thanks for watching : )
