    Only green Ackee is poisonous n even tho we all do thing differently congrats on sharing Caribbean culture…ackee is naturally fattening adding butter is kind of a bit much.

    what is the other name for salt fish? cod?

    not everyone mashes it like that. my grandma boils the ackee for 6 minutes before she simmers it with the rest of the ingredients for 15 minutes. If ackee is cooked well it is not poisinous. The outer shell is the part that is dangerous as well as the seeds and those are discarded before they are canned.

    How about using palm oil and not mashing the Ackee and Saltfish together. My corner shop guy told me if you don’t know how to prepare Ackee, don’t cook it, it can be poisonous. I am not sure what he was on about. I love Bob Marley!

    Amazing! You cooked this so well, and the video was well done/explained! Thank you!

    Everyone cooks different! I usually cook my a&s with oil but will try it with butter to see how it tastes.

    Wow, thank you for informing me that I am Puerto Rican I never new that I was Puerto Rican. My style of seasoning says a lot.

    Jamaicans don’t necessarily “season their oil” isn’t that a Puerto Rican method?

    This sounds so good. I love salt fish & ackee. I love fresh ackee, my dad has an ackee tree in Panama in the back of his shop. I miss having this for breakfast. I have had this in Trelawny & Montego Bay Jamaica with & without tomato, both were good. I’m going to fix for breakfast with some traditional Panamanian Tortillas (Corn Cakes), Sweet Plantain, Potato Pancakes (without the sour cream & apple sauce) Fresh cinnamon tea w/milk (soy vanilla) & fresh bread w/cheese. Mmmmmm

    I love ackee, but I would never eat it with saltfish. Ackee is a great vegetarian alternative! Don’t spoil it with FISH. Rasta man agrees with me on this.

    Not a criticism but a comment and my personal opinion. I personally don’t know anyone that cooks A&S with butter!! I’ve tasted it once and it was awful – the butter completely destroyed the taste of the Ackee. Also, they way in which you flaked the saltfish was very fine and mashing up the ackee in the saltfish rather than gently stirring it makes it look like mashed up food and unappealing. Oh well, i guess everyone has their own personal method.

    I have never seen anyone who did not season their oil with annato first. What kind of salt fish was that? LOL!!
