"I fell in love with the whole line of Belcour preserves and sauces while visiting dear friends in Jamaica several years ago. We couldn't stuff our suitcases with enough to bring home! The intense and fresh flavour these sweet and savoury masterpieces bring to my dishes keep me ordering more and no other sauce will do! If you want to kick up your cooking a notch, I highly recommend the entire line of Belcour Preserves."

"I am the biggest fan of Belcour Preserve products! I use them all. The fact that they are all natural is a big plus but the flavours are bar none. They are consistent and smoothness is so palate pleasing. Hard to pick a favorite but I am never without Honey Jerk, Honey mustard and the only Guava Jam to use ever!"

"Belcour's entire line of sauces, jams and chutneys are a gourmet's paradise. As a chef, the honey mustard is my go-to for dressings, marinades and to flavour my potpies and curries. The sorrel chutney and guava preserves add an exotic twist to both sweet and savoury dishes, giving extra depth and a sensory trip to the Caribbean. The company's commitment to bees and local farmers is an admirable way or preserving Jamaica's land and heritage."

Do you find dragon fruit gross? 😣 You're not t Do you find dragon fruit gross? 😣 You're not the only one - many persons commented on our last dragon fruit video saying that they dislike the bland taste. And we hear you, the hefty price tag on dragon fruit isn't for its taste, but for its health benefits! Did you know that dragon fruit is nutrient-rich (rich in iron, magnesium, and vitamins C & E)? It also has lots of fibre, antioxidants, and prebiotics, while being low on sugar. The best way to eat it, first of all, is to have it cold ❄️ You wouldn't drink a warm beer, and you shouldn't have warm dragon fruit either. Second of all, we found the yummiest way is to eat it with a dollop of sweetened yogurt 🤤 Dragon fruit works really well with milky/creamy flavours. If you try it, let us know what you think, or if you have another recommendation for making dragon fruit yummier, please tell us in the comments below 👇

Once I went to a large family gathering and my cou Once I went to a large family gathering and my cousin served this dish on the buffet. It’s a good dish to serve at these types of events as the Basa is the most reasonably priced fish. I also began to put it on my menu for large family gatherings, as boy do we have very large families. Everyone loved it. I often add tofu to the recipe not just to stretch it, but to also add more protein, and I like the soft silky texture of the tofu mixed with the fish. I make it with Thai Chili Sauce mixed with some Belcour Honey Ginger Pepper Sauce and they were the perfect combo 🌶️😋 INGREDIENTS 1 lb. filet red snapper or grouper or tilapia or basa 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped 1 yellow or red bell pepper, cored, seeded and sliced in julienne 1 medium white onion, diced 3 T. Thai chilli paste 1 T. dark brown sugar 3 T. Belcour Honey Ginger Sauce 1 t. Belcour Honey Mustard Sauce 2 T. Braggs amino acids 2 T. dry white wine 1 T. Thai or Vietnamese fish sauce ¼ cup chicken or vegetable broth 1 T. cilantro leaves, finely chopped 3 scallions, sliced on the bias Vegetable oil and non-stick canola oil spray Salt and pepper 🍯 For the full recipe and more information on Belcour products, please check the link in bio (profile description) 🐝 Follow for more easy and delicious Jamaican, French and Chinese-inspired recipes
Harmony Hall, now the Summer House in Ocho Rios, J Harmony Hall, now the Summer House in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, is a special place for me for many reasons. Annabella Ogden bought Harmony Hall and embarked on a prescient but risky venture of restoring the old house to former glory, replete with intricate fretwork. I had always admired Annabella Ogden, because she had a great appreciation for Jamaican art and preserving our heritage and culture. An artist herself Annabella created and sold notecards and Annabella boxes for Operation Friendship, the fund raising arm of Jamaica Save the Children Fund. When Annabella left Operation Friendship I took over her job and worked there for a year before going to college. All these things made Harmony Hall a perfect place to host Belcour Cookbook book launch, because the book is all about preserving tradition, and the history of a family over five decades seen through the lens of food. 🔍🍲 Many friends and family came to the launch and bought the book, some even bought two. There was also a fair going on and an artist whose work I liked very much, @mazolawamwashighadi, was holding an exhibition in the upstairs gallery. Two from my cookbook team, friend and food stylist @donnanoblestyle and her daughter the fabulous photographer @robyn.noble.photography were also at the event. Some years after Annabella’s death the restaurant and gallery were taken over by two friends Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau, who are fantastic chefs and also cookbook authors. They have renovated Harmony Hall with their unique sense of style and panache and renamed the restaurant Summer House, bringing a modern-day sophistication to Jamaican food. The gift shop also remains and 8 years later my cookbook is still being sold at Harmony Hall. 🙏❤️ Thank you everyone for your gracious support and feedback thus far! @the_cats_whiskers @ogdensebastian @jasisters @suziequrious @summerhouseja #tbt
River crayfish, or janga as they are known in Jama River crayfish, or janga as they are known in Jamaica, are a delicacy. They can make a delicious soup, similar I think to gumbo in Louisiana. Janga soup is a traditional soup as river shrimp were once plentiful in Jamaican rivers. Recently, we were gifted a bag of freshly caught jangas from a Maroon friend. Our small crop of corn was perfect for picking so I decided to make my version of Janga and corn soup with traditional ingredients and adding a little fish sauce, lime, parsley and Belour Honey Mustard Scotch Bonnet Sauce to enhance the flavour. 🍯🌶️ Here's how to make Janga Soup, Belcour style 😋 INGREDIENTS 1 lb of Janga flesh, cleaned 6 cups of broth (more can be added) 2 cups coconut milk 2 medium onions 6 scallion 3 cloves of garlic 5 corn, cut into small cobs 1 carrot 1 chayote 6 okras (optional) 2 T. Parsley choped 2 T. Belcour Honey Mustard Pepper Sauce 2 T. Fish sauce 2 potatoes and/or yam 5 Allspice berries 1 T. Butter French thyme, thyme, parsley Lime juice Oil Salt and pepper METHOD Clean the shrimp and use the remaining parts (except the large claws) to make a broth. Sauté the chopped vegetables starting with the scallion, onions, garlic, and fresh herbs in butter. Then add all the other remaining vegetables, and mix well. Add the broth and pimento berries to the vegetables. After a short simmer, add the coconut milk, salt and pepper. Simmer the soup and add okra. Cook the soup until the vegetables are all cooked. Add the lime juice, fish sauce and Belcour Honey Mustard Pepper sauce to taste. Finally, add the janga and cook for only a few minutes, and you're all done!

Want to add a likkle Jamaica to your barbecue sauc Want to add a likkle Jamaica to your barbecue sauce? An easy way is to mix our Belcour Honey Jerk Sauce with any barbecue sauce, plus some ketchup, sugar and beer 🍺 if you want that extra sweetness and kick 🍯🌶️ The method that we use to barbecue chicken is to first marinade the chicken with scallion, thyme, onion, garlic, salt and pepper overnight, then remove seasoning and bake in oven (under foil) for 45 mins. Then remove the foil, coat with the delicious sauce and return to oven. Remove the chicken and baste again with sauce at least once. Continue roasting the chicken until the juices are clear, and the chicken and sauce have a lovely caramelized colour. The full recipe for Honey Jerk BBQ Chicken can be found in the Belcour Cookbook 👩🏼‍🍳 🐝 Follow for more easy and delicious Jamaican, French and Chinese-inspired recipes 🍯 For more information on Belcour products, please check the link in profile description (bio)
Thai Red Curry Chicken recipe from the Belcour Coo Thai Red Curry Chicken recipe from the Belcour Cookbook 🍛 It's 🥭 season and I’ve been making both sweet and savory recipes with mango. In Southeast Asia mango is often used in curries, so I thought, why not add green mangoes to this Belcour recipe? The experiment turned out to be a success as the curry was creamy and rich, complemented by the slight sweetness and tartness of the mango. Real Thai curry flavour 🤤😋 A Thai curry would normally have coconut milk, fish sauce, cumin, coriander, cilantro, lime and lemongrass, etc. If you keep the basic sauce profile, you can change some of the veggies or meat and still keep the integrity of the recipe. INGREDIENTS 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs 1/2 cup green beans cut into half inch pieces 1 cup of green mango, skin removed and diced 1 cup onions 1 red bell pepper, seeds removed and sliced into thin strips 8 oz. fresh or unsweetened coconut milk (do not shake the can) 1 cup chicken broth 1 cup of tomatoes 4 T. Thai red curry paste 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped 2 t. fresh ginger, grated 1 T. Kafir lime leaves (optional) 1 t. coriander seeds, ground in a spice grinder or with mortar and pestle ½ t cumin ½ t. turmeric ¼ fresh cilantro or basil roughly chopped 2 T. Asian fish sauce 2 T butter 1 t. Belcour Honey Mustard Pepper Sauce, or hot pepper to taste 1 T. freshly squeezed lime juice Salt and black pepper 🍯 For the full recipe, and more information on Belcour products, please check the link in profile 🐝 Follow for more easy and delicious Jamaican, French and Chinese-inspired recipes
What an honour when a restaurant chef finds your s What an honour when a restaurant chef finds your sauce and incorporates it into a dish on their menu. 🙏 Chef Takahashi found our Honey Mustard Pepper Sauce in the supermarket one day and now he pairs it with fried shrimp and cream cheese in the Hot Pepper Shrimp Roll, served at Sora Japanese Cuisine. I thought of telling him to be careful with the sauce but my business side got the better of me 😂 I stand by my belief that Belcour Honey Mustard makes everything taste better ❤️🧡💛 #belcour #belcourpreserves #honeymustard #peppersauce #hotsauce #hotsauces #hotsauceoneverything #hotsaucelover #hotsauceaddict #madeinjamaica #jamaicamade #buyjamaican #jamaicanproducts #naturalproducts #jamaicanfood #jamaicanfoodie #jamaicancooking #sushilove #sushitime #sushiroll #naturalfood #sushitime🍣 #visitjamaica #jamaicanfood #asianfoodlover #asianfoodie #naturalfoods #jamaicanrestaurant #jamaicajamaica #jamaicajamaica🇯🇲 #nopreservatives

Coming up soon is the second in our series of Food Coming up soon is the second in our series of Food that Grows in Jamaica that We Didn't Know We Could Eat - Bamboo🎍 The bamboo is not only a gorgeous plant that's used to make furniture and tools, the young shoots can also be eaten. Have you been eating shoots from the can for years and want to know how to harvest and prepare your own bamboo shoots? Then stay tuned for our next video, where we'll be showing you how to choose, cut and prepare the bamboo for cooking. The bamboo is unfortunately an invasive species in Jamaica so the more we can learn how to use them, the better, so we can curb its disruption of local ecosystems. And in my humble opinion, what better way to use them than for food? 😋 Many thanks to Mrs. Chai for her gracious instruction and labour. As you can see in the last video I'm not the most skilled at cutting bamboo 😂
