Customer Rating: Summary: This book is the real deal Comment: Mekisha Hugh Hampton apparently cannot read - this book DOES an oxtail recipe. There are also a few 'paid for' reviews on here as well (just look at reviews for other cookbooks and you will see what I mean). I am a West Indian and I appreciate all island cooking - this book is a wonderful addition to your cookbook library. So please disregard Mekisha Hugh Hampton's review Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent!!!! Comment: This book is great to have in your collection if you are trying to learn to cook authentic Jamaican food. I am so glad I bought this book. Customer Rating: Summary: Should have bought this earlier Comment: This is a superb book. Many recipes that I remember from my childhood. I've made a few already and they've all turned out really well. Customer Rating: Summary: Outstanding book. Comment: I use it for everyhting when I can. Its a little hard getting the correct measurments. I love it and should be a a staple in every jamaican household. Customer Rating: Summary: Great presentation and user friendly Comment: I am Jamaican and know how to make some Jamaican dishes, but wanted to learn new recipes. I found this book to be very user friendly with recipes that are well known, as well as some lesser known ones. For the reviewer who said there isn't a recipe for oxtail, may I point you to page 101, right next to the one for curried goat.
