Pepper Pot (Recipe 16) from Caroline Sullivan's Jamaica Cookery Book
Recipe
A photo of a section from page 8 of the Jamaica Cookery Book, which reads:
"16. Pepper Pot
Three tablespoonfulls of pure casseripe to every quart of water, cold. Salt to taste.
One handful of bird peppers.
Meat, eggs.
Get an earthen vessel. To every quart of cold water, add three tablespoonfulls of the pure casseripe with salt to taste and a handful of bird peppers. If these cannot be had, use some cayenne. Cut the meat into small pieces after being well cooked, and put into the pot; boil well for half an hour. Any sort of meat may be used, all mixed in it, and hard boiled eggs are an improvement. It should be warmed every day, and something added each day.
