One of the many highlights at Christmas time in Jamaica is the savory and mouth-watering dishes, dessert, and drinks. It is the time of year when we indulge in the richness of our Christmas cake. However, Jamaicans who usually bakes this oh-so-delicious cake usually start preparing long before Christmas.Raisins, currants, prunes, and dried fruits are gathered several weeks before. These are placed in a glass jar with our favorite food wine "Red Label Wine" and the right amount of Jamaican white rum.
The longer the fruits are soaked the tastier the cake is (so everyone says).
If you haven't started soaking your fruits you are behind schedule. However, it is not too late. Also, if you decided to bake at last minute you can steamed the fruits in the rum and wine and it will turn out just fine. Although soaking the fruits well ahead gives you an advantage.
The aroma is so delightful
Stay tuned as we celebrate this Christmas season, the Jamaican way
