Hello Everyone!!!

I know I have been gone for a minute but it is good to be back.

In today’s video, I will be making our traditional Bajan Conkies also known as ’Stew Dumplings”

This is a favorite delicacy that we look forward to every year and we make them on November 5th which used to be called “Guy Fawkes Day” through November 30th in celebration of our Barbados Independence Day.

PREP AHEAD -
BANANA LEAVES/ALUMINUM FOIL (APPROX. 8X8 OR 8X10 SQUARES)

WASH THE BANANA LEAVES WELL UNDER RUNNING WATER.

IN A LARGE POT FILL WATER HALF WAY, BRING TO A BOIL AND TURN THE HEAT OFF.

ADD THE BANANA LEAVES AND STEEP FOR 20-30 MINUTES.

REMOVE EACH LEAF ONE AT A TIME AND WIPE DRY WITH A DISH CLOTH.

THIS PROCESS IS TO MAKE THE LEAVES PLIABLE WHEN FOLDING AND TO KILL ANY MICROSCOPIC PARASITES.

IT IS ALWAYS BEST TO USE THE BANANA LEAVES IF YOU CAN SOURCE THEM, IT GIVES THE CONKIES A DISTINCT TASTE.

WHEN STEAMING YOU GET AN AROMA FROM THE BANANA LEAVES AS WELL, SO NOSTALGIC.
