Bammie came up as something X rated and then something about rap........LOL I shall see if the library has a book on island cooking (:- O Donna Wee K Chew <techiewee wrote: Dear Donna, I spelt " Bahmee " wrong, it should be spelt " bammie " . Now if you google that, you will know how to make " bammie " too. If you make it, don't soak it in your tea for you will not have any tea left, hehe, lol :-))) I am grateful for the heads-up regarding the " gluten free recipes " in the " bread folder " . Thanks a million :-) Later... Best Wishes, Wee On Behalf Of Donnalilacflower Thursday, May 18, 2006 8:02 PM Hi Wee and Ackee Hi Wee, I shall take a Google image search, I have never ever heard of ackee and I love to cook with out of the ordinary ingredients. My speciality would be strange fruits, vegetables and see veggies. I will try almost anything in a sweet bread recipe I can't eat really spicy foods but everything else I can handle. Now go to the bread folder and we have a recipe file for gluten free breads. I hope you can use a recipe from there. I hope you feel better soon, like everything else, if we have to elminate something from our diet we can find plenty of recipes to compensate Donna Wee K Chew wrote: Dear Donna, I am grateful for the question, " what is Ackee ? " . It is a delicacy in Jamaica. It has a large pod which is fruiting on a large tree. When the Ackee is ready the pods open up and inside you see a lovely bright yellow Ackee. It looks like Cod Roe but doesn't taste anything like it. The flesh is very delicate and tender( i.e. melts in your mouth without having to bite). You can smash the lovely yellow Ackee with your tongue. In Jamaica, folks cooked Ackee with Saltfish. Jamaicans delicacy are " Rice & Peas " serve with Bahmee, which soaks up your tea, lol. Bahmee is made from Cassava(Tapioca). You must try to google " Ackee " and " Bahmee " . Pictures speaks a million words & I was treated to a lot of pictures with " google search engine " :-) I tried to google " Bahmee " but I think I spell it wrong. I know it is pronouce as " Bahmee " but don't know the exact spelling. Heh, many members have already email me regarding gluten. I will wait for some more before I post my final conclusion. Like you I also eat everything but now I can't :-( Best Wishes, Wee in UK On Behalf Of Donnalilacflower Thursday, May 18, 2006 6:22 PM Gluten Free Food and OT rash Hi Wee Now Wee what is Ackee? I can't wait to hear about this. Is it hot and spicy? I'm bad at gluten free since I eat everything. I'm hoping some of the members acn help you with that one. I eat all types of breads, pasta, etc. so I never know if something has gluten in it or not. Cheers, Donna My riches can't buy everything, I want to hear the children sing, All I hear is the sound, of rain falling on the ground, I sit and watch as tears go by.
