Jamaica's most famous food would be its national dish - Ackee and Salfish eaten with whatever you want, but most Jamaicans prefer to have it with yam, dumplins and banana or roasted breadfruit. Ackee is fruit like and grows on a tree in a pad. An ackee pad usually holds three seeds of ackee, but sometimes it holds two or even four. The ackee is ready to be picked when the pads open up and it is prepared by breaking off the seed from the head of the ackee seed, cleaning out the mid section. You then boil them in water only, since it is mostly had with saltfish, which is really salt. After it is boiled, it is then drained and placed in a pot with the saltfish wich would have been soaked, boiled and broken into small pieces. Seasons like, escallion, time, pepper (sweet and hot), onion, tomato, black pepper, etc. are also added.
