Vegan Dominican Arepitas de Yuca (Yuca Patties) 

Thanks so much!

I read from a single source of unknown reliability that the brown skin has cyanide and has to be removed or cooked out.

I never heard about having to boil it first due to poisons.

It will turn into a mush.

Sylvia B if it came out bitter, it might be due to the quality of the yuca. Try adding organic sugar and straining just a bit of the water out of the yuca "dough."

Thanks for the advice. I'll try that.

I get that a lot. I must have been Boricua in another lifetime jejejeje

Thank you brother for sharing the knowledge!

The lighter skinned Dominicans deny their black ancestry actually has a form of KKK in the Dominican Republic used to torment black Latinos and Haitians.

Thank your for that add-on about when the recipe comes in. 💛

@@EarthIzayaa you're welcome. I was just very eager to hear the recipe 😁

I've also shared with my vegan Dominican family members. Thank you for putting this out there.

It's anise seed.

Antoine Mclean glad you found the information useful. In nature, you will find crops (veggies or fruits or roots) that are white in color but containing tons of properties in tune with the biochemistry of the original man and woman. Benefits of these "white" crops include immune defense building. Yucca is a complex carbohydrate, hence the starches and contains high levels of vitamin c and antioxidants stimulating the production of white blood cells. Peace!

Earth Izayaa hmm....Interesting. What is your stance on Colllard Greens. I'm not sure if you know the God Father Divine, (Fakim). The elder was teaching that Collard greens were emphatically now cipher. This is a teaching that goes back to the Honorable Elijah Muhammad book "How to eat to live" Where he talks about how coarse this vegetable is to the digestive track. You have to really cook it deeply and for a protracted time in order to make that and Kale digestible. The problem with that is by doing that over cooking it destroys the nutritional Content. So, we shouldn't eat it at all. There are also people who aren't apart of the 5% nation who are apart of the "Conscious community" and what they do is read alot of books and create a pseudo-movement called the conscious community. There's only 1 movement who is conscious among the world's people and that's the 5%. Some of these people serve collards at conscious events. But don't understand the nature of living things. They are just seeing that it's a green vegetable and thus must be healthy. What's your stance on collard greens? Knowledge knowledge....

Cassava is supposed to have cancer inhibiting nutrients! Cant judge the book by its cover.
