Directions
Trinidad Corn Soup,Extremely popular at Carnival time. It can be bought piping hot from street vendors and is served at most carnival ftes. West Indian corn is more starchy and less sweet than the North American variety but I don’t imagine that other varieties of corn would detract from the flavour of this dish. Goes a lot faster if done in a pressure coooker. For the dumplings refer to recipe#183964,This was perfect. Made me nostalgic for my childhood. I skipped the coconut milk (never use that) and cilantro (because I didn’t have it, but would probably only use in the Summer). Great recipe!,This was really good. Only difference I made was with the scotch bonnet, i took out the seeds and put in the rest of the pepper i like mine with a spicy tinge. Then I also put salt beef in mine. It was awesome!
