Jerk spice and technique are a mashup of the island’s African and Arawak influences. Runaway slaves in Jamaica (called Maroons) fought the British and escaped into the mountains before later settling in the town of Boston in the parish of Portland, Jamaica.
While in hiding from their captors, the Maroons employed African cooking techniques but used seasonings and methods inspired by the Arawaks – the island’s original inhabitants – to preserve meat to cook when it was safe to do so without getting caught by their former slave masters – SO gave rise to the birth of Jerk a method of cooking

Our Culture Wrap in a Sunshine Flaky Pastry is Quintessential to every
Jamaican way of life and the living memory it exhibits through our soul!
THE JAMAICAN PATTY (TURNOVER)
Jamaican patties are a savoury street food snack shaped into a distinctive “D” shape. The inside of the pastry is made up of a flavoursome filling of beef, lamb, fish, or vegetables that’s spicy-butnot-too spicy-in-all-the-right-places.
This filling is perfectly encased in gleaming golden pastry, that’s been crimped shut with the teeth of a fork and baked until crispy.
