Growing up in a Jamaican household in America, ginger b**r was one of those drinks you had to grow into.

Now I appreciate exactly why it works, especially with something rich like our Beefy Cheese Patty.

Find Caribbean Food Delights Beefy Cheese Patties at ShopRite, Walmart, Publix and select supermarkets.

At a Zwilling event, one of the chefs was literally off to the side working on the turkey gravy. I’ve watched my friend make Thanksgiving gravy from the roasting pan drippings for years, so I already had a clue.

The curious foodie in me never assumes so I had to ask what he was doing and this is what he told me.

He had removed the turkey drippings and was deglazing the remaining drippings and brown bits with 1/2 cup Cognac and burning out the alcohol while reducing the liquid to half. Later he was going to create a roux with 1/4 cup flour and 1/4 cup turkey fat (from the drippings). Slowly whisk back the deglazed liquid, the turkey drippings, and about 3 cups of chicken stock. Then simmer with thyme and a splash of Worcestershire sauce until thickens.

Pairing Jamaican Patties with Jamaican Soda. Our Jamaican Curry chicken Patties naturally pairs well with the pineapple soda due to the sweetness and acidity in the pineapple which complements the warm spices in the curry.

Growing up in a Jamaican household I grew up with these Jamaican sodas and Patties. As an adult with a background in nutrition and food science, pairing the flavors of the Jamaican sodas we grew up with made a lot of sense with different varieties of our family’s Caribbean Food Delights Jamaican Patties.

The first pairing is Ting with the classic spicy beef patty. Citrusy, tart and sweet goes well with rich, spicy flavors of the Jamaican Spicy Beef Patty.

Sweet Potatoes with Whipped Marscapone Goat Cheese Cream. My sister and I went to a Zwillings event hosted by Wells Fargo.

My guess on the recipe ratio:
5 lbs sweet potatoes
2 cups chilled heavy whipping cream, whipped
8oz Marscapone cheese
4 oz plain goat cheese
1 cup dried cranberries, finely chopped
1 cup toasted pistachios, finely chopped
Honey for drizzling
Olive oil
Salt & Pepper

Wash & slice sweet potatoes, skin on 1/2 in thick. Toss in olive oil, salt, pepper. Place on a single layer and roast 20 minutes at 400F.

Finely chop dried cranberries and toasted pistachios.

Whip heavy cream to stiff peaks. Blend Marscapone and goat cheese. Fold in whipped cream and chopped cranberries. Pipe cream onto cooked slices of sweet potatoes. Top with chopped pistachios and drizzle of honey.

This was Robin’s idea while we were making sure we got a selfie together for our coach Jen. My sister, Bonnie and Shane played along nicely.

Robin Berlinsky and I connected through Jen Gottlieb's coaching programs. This week, we finally met in person.

Rockland Business Women's Network members asked for more nonprofit programming. When I learned about Robin's work helping nonprofits find funding, I said, "We need to bring her to Rockland."

Thank you, Robin, for sharing your knowledge with our community. And thank you, Jen, for connecting us.

We met online. Yesterday, I introduced her as our keynote speaker.

Robin Berlinsky and I connected through Jen Gottlieb’s coaching programs. This week, we finally met in person.

Our Rockland Business Women’s Network members had asked for more nonprofit programming. When I learned about Robin’s work helping nonprofits find funding, I thought, “We need to bring her to Rockland.”

That’s what can happen when you follow through on a connection.

Jen reminds us to create our own stage instead of waiting to be picked. And when you help build a stage, you have an opportunity to make room for other people’s expertise.

At RBWN, our board brings people together every month from September through June. Each gathering is another opportunity to connect someone with knowledge to a community that can use it.

During Robin’s visit, I also got to share my world at Caribbean Food Delights and our family’s story through my father’s book, Change of Fortune.

Thank you, Robin, for sharing your knowledge with our community. And thank you, Jen, for helping bring us together.

For the speakers in my network: What do you teach, and who needs to hear it?
