I love the book It have great recipes wonderful photos but I do believe it was lacking some recipes that Jamaicans cook like cog which is corn pudding I did not see banana pudding I did not see black cake I did not see sweet potato pudding I didnt see easter bon. quite a few recipes that I'm used to that I have eaten is not in this book unfortunately . I'm kind of disappointed and then again with the recipes in the book I like the recipes but unfortunately buy another Jamaican cookbook that has the recipes that I'm looking for. But all in all the book is fabulous is a great book the recipes that is in this book is worth buying all the same I just wished a few more recipes I was looking for was in this book but other than that this is a very good book and I'm glad I bought it.

Disappointed!
I was expecting that this cookbook would provide me with some exciting recipes from jamaica. But after going through it I was terrible disappointed. Slim pickings! Save your money. You can go on you tube to get video on many Jamaican favorites.

Authentic indeed!
As a Jamaican and a cook, I find this gives another perspective on mainstream items which allows them to be more readily accessed by non Jamaicans. It breaks down dishes to make them less complicated as often these items are just taught in family kitchens and to be honest I never had recipes for them. My favourite "new" recipe in the book ...I love the callaloo spring rolls in ackee sauce, I could eat them all day!Overall, I'm very pleased with this buy; this is a great book to add your Caribbean cooking library.

Great Recipes
I love this book, many different recipes that are all excellent. I'm a Jamaican who has learn to cook from my Dad, Mom and Grandma. This book taught me some things that I didn't even know of. Get this book.

Useful teacher in a book
I have only browsed some of the recipes, but I ordered the book for a certain few recipes. On the face of it, the book will work for me very well.It arrived very quickly, which is a good job as I was so excited.You're cooking skills will improve in leap and bounds, as the recipes are well laid out with a good size font, and the ingredients are easily sourced.

No well known Jamaican recipes!
Pretty book. Rating it 3 stars for the quality, however, my husband is Jamaican and hasn't heard of half of the recipes!! Good pictures though.

Delicious, Mouthwatering Jamaican Recipes.
I really enjoyed using the book 'Authentic Recipes from Jamaica', as a guide during my cooking. Being Jamaican, I am used to the meals shown in the book, but just never seem to get it 100% perfect, just the way my Mom and Grandmother would prepare these meals. After experimenting with some of the recipes from the book so far, I think I have finally gotten it and now realise that there were certain ingredients that I needed to include in my own cooking to get the perfect taste. Fantastic book and I would recommend it to anyone who has an interest in Jamaican cooking. Thanks Amazon !
