    Although the jerk chicken recipe was excellent, no one in my family liked the corn porridge. For the most part it was flavorless, but with an "off-taste," which is believed to have been caused by the addition of chicken broth.

    Hi Tyler
    Thank you for the Jamaican feature- I am a Jamaican and I was happy to see our food on your show- the corn porridge does not have onions or chicken stock when i was growing up - everything as you said except the chicken stock, onions - just add water and you need the all spice, got to have the all spice with milk- thicken and serve with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top - WOW - but you did a good job!

    I followed the recipe with one exception; I did not use the skim coconut milk as I didn't have it on hand. The flavors all blended very nicely. The porridge was not as thick as Tyler's on the show but it would coat a spoon nicely. Other similar recipes I've seen for this call for a little flour as a thickening agent. I suspect that cooking longer might help thicken it up too. This recipe was very savory and I'll be serving this again. Thanks Tyler.

    OMG....I MADE THIS ENTIRE MEAL....THE CORN PORRIDGE, THE JAMAICAN DUMPLINGS W/ PLANTAINS AND THE JERK CHICKEN. I ALSO ADDED A COCONUT CILANTRO RICE. WE ALL ROLLED OVER AND LIT UP A CIGARETTE AFTER THIS MEAL. IT WAS A KNOCK OUT! MAN, WAS IT EVER GOOD. I WILL DEFINITELY DO THIS ONE OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!!!! AND THE DUMPLINGS WERE AMAZING. WE DIPPED THEM IN THE SOUP AND WENT STRAIGHT TO HEAVEN. GREAT MEAL!!! KUDOS TO TYLER.

    As a Jamaican I was very proud of the Jamaican show you did.Jerk was on target except missing pimentoes. However, the corn porridge is not what I remembered. So I ask mom. There are no onions , oil or ginger in the porridge. It's very basic. Water, coconut milk, condense milk , evaporated milk, vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon(optional and of course hominy corn.

    to Lyn from Langhorne,pa.

    I am getting ready to try this recipe myself so after having read your review I am going to use coco lopez pina colada mix because I find it sweeter and thicker than cocnut milk. Hope it turns out yummy!

    not so much like cream corn, Tyler. The hominy corn is real starchie, kinda like a potato.
    This was great with the Jamaican dumplings with plantains. Sops up the gravey real well and the two taste compliment eachother.
    I think the coconut flavor need to be just one note higher, I m not sure how to do that, I think I am going to reserve some of the coconut milk and add it in at the end, Other than that, I will make it again. It is diff, interesting and goes well with Tylers jerk chicken meal.

    Since my husband and I go to Negril, Jamaica each year and have become extremely familier with the cuisine. However, corn porridge is unfamilier to us and we are not eaters of homony. We decided to try this recipe along with Tyler's jerk chicken (see review. On the show the corn porridge looked thicker. Mine didn't thicken even though I cooked it longer. I really enjoyed the texture of the homony but I can't say I loved the taste. This has nothing to do with the recipe though...homony is just different than what we're are used to.

    If you really like homony, give this a try!
