Episode 1 – The Blacker The Pot
Catherine and Lynda speak to Riaz Phillips, author of Jamaican recipe books ‘Belly Full: Caribbean Food in the UK’ and ‘West Winds: Recipes, History and Tales from Jamaica ’. In his books, Riaz uses the stories of food and dining to explore his Jamaican background and so, perhaps unsurprisingly, has chosen his mother’s Dutch Pot as his object. Riaz tells us about getting his mum to show him how to cook his first curried goat in this pot a few years ago and we hear how Dutch Pots are a symbol of family gatherings in the Caribbean community. This episode was a Message Heard production brought to you in partnership with Catherine Ross and Lynda Burrell of The Caribbean Heritage Museum: Museumand.
