Chrissy :

Dry Epis seasoning ? I need the details

Lady Dorway :

My darling child. I watched this video twice. I bought every ingredient that you used on Amazon. It’s in my shopping cart right now. I cannot wait to try this question I noticed you did not use palm oil. Most of the recipes I see used palm oil is there a reason why everyone does things differently? I understand, but wanna make sure my first time trying it I get the authentic flavor beautiful video. I will send you a message when I try it. Also I may add shrimp. I’m a big back.😂💋💋
