Callaloo is widely known throughout the Caribbean and has a distinctively Caribbean origin, created by enslaved Africans using ideas of the indigenous people along with both African (okra) and indigenous (Xanthosoma) plants. .

In Jamaica, callaloo is often combined with saltfish and is usually seasoned with tomatoes, onion, escallion, scotch bonnet peppers and margarine/cooking oil and steamed. It is often eaten with roasted breadfruit, boiled green bananas and dumplings and it is a popular breakfast dish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callaloo

My life is simple, it is what's going on for me right now.

Those with a hard complicated life can't accept life being simple, easy, and fun, so when they encounter someone who's living like that, their mind sees something scary, and they tell scary stories... Craig :)... read more

Your simple life is the way the life should be lived by everyone! I appreciate your lifestyle!

That really looks insanely delicious. You are not only an expert crypto advisor but also a master chef. You must run a cookery channel as well...

Your life is simple yet exciting ;)

Thanks for this great video @craig-grant. I looked up the nutritional value of Callaloo and it is considered a super food. High in potassium and calcium. Also a good source of protein and fiber. I wonder if it is possible to grow here in the United States?

I'm in Florida right now, so yeah, it does grow in the USA :)

Hey, I live in Fl too. Can I buy a callalloo bush from you? I miss it, it's a favorite Trini dish of mine and I can't make it from spinach or kale..

HI I'd love to but I joined like two days ago, I haven't a clue how to send steam yet. Also, I have some but do I need it? I'm still figuring out how to earn stuff on steemit. Bear with me?

Crypto expert + pro chef @craig-grant! Looks really delicious!

My love for coconut oil is what inspired my Steemit name. Your food looks yummy!

but can you make tequila out of it?

what a great garden space you have going

Good to see your culture more in depth dude! Resteemed :) Cool.

I've never had callaloo, but in Antigua we prepare a dish with spinach and salted corn beef and trotters that is equally yummy. I would like to try some Ackee and saltfish.

I feel like i can smell it through the internet :) looks awesome

I love coconut oil always in my food .

As I read this, I am super hungry. I bet this is good eating...

This is a Steem life style and life with freedom all what we do now we shoud do because of simple life like that without stress, f....mortgage :)
If this callaloo taste like spinach I love it already:) great receipt !!!
