Jerk cooking is an authentic Jamaican way to cook meat. Whether it is pork, chicken, beef or fish, the meat is seasoned and slowly cooked over an open fire or on a barbecue grill. "Jerk" is made up of regional spices ranging from scallions and thyme to pimento (all spice) and cinnamon. The first taste of jerked food is hot with pepper, but as you eat the other spices explode with stunning flavour. It is for this reason why all the other islands have adopted Jerk. Jerk is now viewed as a regional food, and everyone has their own special recipe to make jerk seasoning. Nicole will introduce visitors to all jerk spices and history, and discuss the various ways jerk seasoning can be used to give your food its own West Indian style when you return home. Take this class not just to explore new flavours, but to enjoy the experience of cooking with new friends in a West Indian home with great view of the Caribbean Sea!

Jerk cooking is an authentic Jamaican way to cook meat. Whether it is pork, chicken, beef or fish, the meat is seasoned and slowly cooked over an open fire or on a barbecue grill. The seasoning is made up of local/regional spices like scallions, onion, thyme, pimento (all spice), cinnamon, nutmeg, peppers and salt. The first taste of jerked food is hot with pepper, and as you eat the flavors of all the other spices mingle in your mouth giving an explosion of stunning flavor. It is for this reason why all the other islands have adopted Jerk. Jerk is now viewed as a regional food, and everyone has their own special recipe to make jerk seasoning. In Nicole’s class, Nicole will introduce you to all the jerk spices, provide a history about jerk, and discuss the various ways jerk seasoning can be used to give your food its own West Indian style when you return home.   Once lunch is ready, guests will enjoy eating on our large veranda overlooking the Caribbean Sea (and the hummingbirds that frequent our orchids). * Vegetarian options are available upon request.

"Best Jerk chicken" you ever had? That's fantastic... and what's even better is that you can now make it at home too! Loved hearing that the cooking class was your "Grand Finale" of your trip. Thank you for the review and I look forward to cooking with you again. If you want to do it sooner, just contact me about a Zoom cooking class so we can whip something tasty up. All the best until we see you again, Nicole and Adam

Nicole's Table is a MUST excursion!!

Giving Nicole Table a 5 star is NOT enough!! This experience should be given a 10 star rating!! Nicole was informative, kind and funny. I learned a lot is just how the little things in a kitchen and recipe makes a big difference. Nicole kitchen was clean and organized. I told her she needs to give the cooks at my resort cooking lessons!! I will definitely make the recipes at home. I am so very glad I took this class. If you have a chance to experience this excursion, please do! You will ...read more
