#Farine #Cassava #FoodieNationFeature
I love Farine so much. I always purchase whenever I'm returning from Tobago, but this is a lot of work it makes me appreciate and love it even more.
Thanks foodie nation for highlighting this .it was a delight watching the process . wishing him and his wife the best in life , truly an inspiration.
We have the same in Ghana and it's called "Gari". It's amazingly produced the same way.
It’s nice to see the different ways Farine is made, in Guyana we eat it with roast meat. It’s a true labour of love
,
Farine is life. I will definitely be looking for it on the shelves. Thanks for sharing
I’ll never complain about d price of farine again. That is a lot of work and you really have to love what you are doing to do this amount of labor. As someone earlier said ‘it’s a labor of love.’ Totally enjoyed this video and wud continue to purchase your product. I think I’ll come look for y’all and purchase some. Tnx again for this video. Btw, I enjoyed your genius way of drying out the liquid by using the dryer side of the washing machine🫣. Smart guy
I order my farine from the Farine man directly.. He has the best tasting farine in Tobago and possibly Trinidad.... Wonderfully made.. Big up you and your team Brian... Who Jah bless......... 👏🏽👏🏽
Do you have num
The Amerindians in Guyana use a matapee to squeeze the cassava dry.
Nothing from the process is wasted. The water is settled and the starch is dried and can be used for baking, porridge or even starching clothes. The liquid is boiled down to make cassareep.
I really enjoyed seeing this process. Glad to see there are still people who do this. I love his knowledge and his passion. He knows everything about the old ways, while incorporating modern ways.
Im so proud if him! It is better than Cornflakes!
When I was younger and going to Tobago to visit my family during the summer time, my great aunt thought me how to make Farine. I love it.
Love what you all doing. God’s blessings upon your business in Jesus name
I just love Farine reminds me of my childhood days in Moriah
Congratulations Brian! You're doing well. The job is labour intensive but your love for what you're doing comes through in the finished product. Always a hard working youngman you have the natural sweetman. I remember buying local sweets n treats from your mom always very well presented and tasty! All the very best.
Now i see where i could get my regular suply of farine . Thumbs up Brain.
Great appreciation for such hard work.Lived inT&T for ten years and got addicted to farine.Cant do without some in my pantry. When I cannot get it, I go searching all around
till I find someone .Thanks for the hard work.
It’s beautiful to see you keeping our traditions and cuisine alive and well. Everyone should support your business. I love Trinidad measuring cup, your hand. Just like my tanty Punsee when see cooked. RIP.
I wish all local food processors will showcase how they produce their own products and their hard work so customers should not complain about the price
I grew up in Les coteaux the earlier years of my childhood. It felt great watching this video. Reminder of when my mom took me with her as a little girl and it will take her all day. Now there are machines to help shorten the process. I love your demonstration, u showed the original way and the modified way. Good job. I’m proud to watch this.
Where was this machine when I was growing up. I know this process well growing up in St Lucia. We call the raw cassava “manioc”
Haitians eat “manioc” too i think they fry it
I'll have to show my parents tonight this video. It'll remind them of home a lot. 🇹🇹😎❤️!!
This is Gari in Ghana/Nigeria only without the spices or butter/coconut oil.
Great job mr Elder...I will be checking you when ever I am home....by the way ...genius way to spin out all that cassava juice....
Wonderful episode! Thanks for sharing your craft. I remember eating dry farine when I was small. Delicious. Also these are the local products we should be promoting and exporting internationally.
Always gets mines from carriacou, so glad it closer to home..
Tobago 🇹🇹 is blessed
Gr8 job B. Your farine looks sooo good 👍.
I've tried a few brands with much disappointment (husky with nil flavor) I'm looking for yours on d shelf or finding you.
Thanks for your dedication and keeping the skill alive! 🥰😋
Boy I absolutely love that thing. My grandmother made it when I was younger. It's still my favorite country food. I'm from trinidad and I love my local foods, it's the best. Big props to the farine man😁
U should write a book and document this process for preservation of this for future reference and generations
Thanks for sharing....brings back memories from my childhood days in Tobago
What a lovely video! Thanks for showing us how to make farine! It looks like a great product
Really enjoyed this episode very informative. Much success to you👍💯
I was there recently and enjoyed talking to you, I learned a lot thanks
Wonderful process. I really enjoyed this episode.
I bought some from the vendors at Fort King George in Scarbourough. Can't wait to try!
that was our cereal in the morning with avocado and and a tip of salt mix to taste. that was our cornflakes
I enjoyed this video so much. Finally I get to see how its made.
I have never heard about this.. really interested in getting some now.
Thoroughly enjoyed the video. It’s a lot of hard work snd looks tasty 😋 😋😋😋
Thank you for sharing ❤️
Just looking at your video I'm so amazed I must get myself some .
Tnx for sharing
Many blessings to you and your wife
St.lucia still using the long time ago way to make the Farine but using a different way to squeeze the water out.❤️❤️
A labor of love…!!!
Wow I enjoy looking at the hard work ❤ Vincy
Brian, buy a Guyanese Amerindian MATAPEE to get the juice out of the grated cassava. You can process that entire bowl and more at once, with less of your energy.
Very interesting....enjoyed looking at this process,keeping the tradition alive.
Very well done. All the best.
Farine and zaboca with a pinch of salt is heaven iykyk.
Are you Haitian lol
Keep up the good work.
Well executed!! I love farine
God bless you.sir. 🙌
*Hard Work definitely pays off*
oh boy.
as a teenager, spending some of my summer holidays with my maternal grandfather, on his mountain side estate, called fondbellaire, in Penville, Dominica, i can vaguely recall going to a friend of his home, where farine was being made.
the process of manually making the farine, is as the gentleman ascribed to.
many of the town folks have no knowledge of the process.
i was lucky.
🇨🇼🇩🇲🇨🇦

Bro you are a true champion texas & 🇹🇹
Never had Farine. Would like to try it. I would make it as oatmeal.
It looks so good. A good super food.
Remember when Usain Bolt came on the running seen?
He was asked, 'what made you such an excellent runner:' he responded, 'yellow yam.'
Since that yellow yam price has skyrocketed.
I have no doubt that dat is a super food also.
This was interesting to watch.
Wait ... Big man using a twin top to ring out the cassava. 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Smart !
Wow that bless machine
