I'm an engineer and was absolutely blown away by the cleverness of the design for extracting the cassava juice with gravity and body weight. I'm also amazed by how they use all of the cassava without waste.
I'm Caribbean born and i'm completely blown away by this and seeing Casareep made for the first time in a way i can understand. I totally respect the daily lives of these ladies and what they do to make their meals everyday as well processing the Cassava traditionally. What is disheartening to me though is that i grew up in the islands and I used to remember my Grandmother who passed away a few years ago, she used to make Cassava Bread as well Cassareep. I was a way younger then and I remembered mostly of the process was helping her grate the Cassava. But i never understood the rest of it when she was squeezing the Cassava in towels. My Grandmother had a depth of food knowledge that was vast. I'm disheartened that she passed away and I barely learned much of what she knew including making Cassava Bread as well Cassareep. However I'm glad with this video I got to see how it's made and to understand the process.
I wish the UK would export Cassareep from Guyana, and I would be able to make pepperpot, it was so humble to watch these ladies make Cassareep from scratch.
Thank you so much for the amazing video! It's awsome to see the process of making the cassareep. In Suriname they also make cassava bread and cassareep. We call it casripo.
Beautiful documentry..That's my village Moruca...Cassareep making is a long process, but we enjoy doing it.It s our way of life...Thanks for making and sharing this documentry.
These people live with lots of hardships to survive and it's sad the government does not support them to improve the standard of living.... most important a comfortable home. They are part of a rich culture and deserve respect and admiration.
That was enlightening! I'm from the Caribbean & make a sweet version of cassava bread & didn't realize all the goodness I was throwing away! I'm definitely going to try making cassareep! Thanks for all the time & effort put into this video! ☺
i lived and worked in Guyana in the 70's just looking at the Essiquebo and the river scenery blew me away. Loved Pepperpot and am lokking forward to getting some cassareep and cook up a pepperpot. Thanks for a great video.
Thank you for making this video. I watched it today, more than two years after it was uploaded to CZcams. I've been wanting to see a tutorial video on how to make cassareep for sometime now so I still consider myself lucky to have had it recommened to me. Having left Guyana at the age of not being inerested in knowing anything about anything I never knew how cassareep was made even though I was familiar with it by eating pepperpot. After four decades of not tasting it I was wondering if I could make it myself. This video will help me in that endeavour. So thank you again for your excellent videoing talent.
There’s one thing that should be corrected. The cassava they’re using is “Sweet Cassava “ The liquid or juice from that cassava is not poisonous. There’s also a “Bitter Cassava “ that is poisonous. The liquid or juice from that cassava is allowed to settle. The result is a solid at the bottom that when dried is used to make starch. The husk is fed to the pigs as there’s no effect on them. The liquid from the sweet cassava is not poisonous only the bitter cassava
I plan to make this trip one day, God Willing. I'm already thinking of bringing chocolates and sweets for the children in exchange for their hospitality. Any ideas on what gifts to bring for the grown-ups?
As I understand it. All you have to do is squeeze the liquid from the grated cassava. Boil the liquid, while skimming the fat, until it becomes cassareep?
I’m from Belize and only knew of Cassava bread and how it’s made (same method and other ways) but never heard of cassareep. Still kind of don’t know what it is to be honest.
Use it to tenderize and flavor up meat and chicken it has a rich, slightly sweet flavor spices added to it really bring out the flavor of the meat or chicken or rice and vegetable dish
wonder how they figured out how to eat something that contains cyanide......although in the us there are a few things that can be slightly poisonous that we have learned to eat......poke sallet roots are poison but the leaves are not when cooked..... I think parts of the potato plant can be poisonous at certain stages.....it was commonly thought that tomatoes were poison because they are related to night shade.
Me gusta más Guyana que Chile que argentina .que el país mugriento de Venezuela . Por lo menos en Guyana no el racismo y la xenofobia que hay en Brasil y el resto de estos países
The priceless knowledge in these Amerindians of then to now would never die.
WOW! I'm impressed with the very humble way the ladies go about the making of the cassava products.
Wow, I'm Guyanese born, but never knew it took so much to make cassareep. Very humbled by the video, those ladies are amazing at their craft.
Thanks Kim! Yes they are.

It's an artform...
You've helped me so much. A special thank you to Adelaide. I'm living in Sao Paulo and casareep is scarce.

Can the Cassareep be made from sweet cassava? Bitter cassava is not available in my country.
Thank you for uploading this video. Mu grandmother is from orealla. She always brings cassareep for my family. But i never saw how she made it.
Hard work is the key to success, looks great, great video.

How long could you keep Cassareep for ??
I plan to make this trip one day, God Willing. I'm already thinking of bringing chocolates and sweets for the children in exchange for their hospitality. Any ideas on what gifts to bring for the grown-ups?
I hope you paid them.
I would like to see more of yr vedios
Curious to know if anyone tried making the cassareep at home?
As I understand it. All you have to do is squeeze the liquid from the grated cassava. Boil the liquid, while skimming the fat, until it becomes cassareep?
imagine that i live in Guyana and I can't even tour this country shame
Can't Or won't?
I love a cassava bread ....
Where is Mariam from? Is that a Welsh accent I can hear?
That is like traveling to the moon ,for some people!

I think Jamaicans call cassava bread bammy............great to eat with fried fish. Small world........
Yes, We call it Bammy.
No eating or tasting it at the end? Hehe.
She go pon such long journey to find Cassreep? I just go my local grocery store on Liberty Ave.
Shortythepresident Lol

Use it to tenderize and flavor up meat and chicken it has a rich, slightly sweet flavor spices added to it really bring out the flavor of the meat or chicken or rice and vegetable dish
That's my life style
She did not show not to use the starch
Every time the narrator says the native name od the strainer it sounds like she's saying snake in my language. Lol
I Wonder if this amerindian ladies go to a buscuit factory..the Will give them the same treat
Thing's these people go true and yet they're happier than most of US smh
The rsal thing not molases
Molasses is made from sugar cane, A completely different product.
Shit this narrator English is sharper than a razor blade .......
First time I am watching how casareep is made.........and I am Guyanese!! What a shame
Buxton welcome to the club I also never knew
wonder how they figured out how to eat something that contains cyanide......although in the us there are a few things that can be slightly poisonous that we have learned to eat......poke sallet roots are poison but the leaves are not when cooked..... I think parts of the potato plant can be poisonous at certain stages.....it was commonly thought that tomatoes were poison because they are related to night shade.
Fantastic!! I am impressed with all the ladies and process of ...
