I’m here because I just discovered that the history of Jamaican rice and peas comes from the Ghanaian dish Waakye. Most Afro Jamaicans come from the Akan tribe in Ghana through the slave trade. Slaves were transported from Ghana’s Gold Coast and cooked this dish to remind them of home after they were transported. The slave masters would only allow them to take Sunday as a day of rest from work, so Jamaican rice & peas (Waakye) is traditionally eaten on Sundays. We also put coconut milk in our rice. 🇯🇲 🇬🇭

I’m married to an amazing Ghanaian man that loves to cook. This is my favorite meal I am so happy I found you so I can make dinner for him now

I know your husband loves you beyond measure. Excellent cook, mom, kind wife, and clean housekeeper. Reminiscent of an excellent Haitian woman. God bless you my sister.

I'm happy I joined your channel. I just found out that I am of the Ghanaian descent on my father's side of my family. You know in America a lot of African Americans do not know their heritage. I'm excited to learn about the foods of my heritage. I would love to learn to make them. I'm so glad I found you.

I'm from Honduras 🇭🇳, and this reminds me of our "Gallo pinto" (Honduran rice and beans). This made me so hungry. It looks delicious. Best regards from Honduras 🇭🇳 ❤️ 🇬🇭
