This is a genuine Jamaican curry powder recipe without hot pepper, which should be added separately to any dish. You can also use powdered versions of any of the ingredients, but for better flavor use whole seeds. For real Jamaican flavor, you will usually add Scotch bonnet or habanero chile peppers to your recipes. However, if you want to add heat directly to the powder, add 2 to 4 tablespoons cayenne powder to the mix, depending on your taste.

Sour Cream Donuts
Sour cream makes these old-fashioned donuts stay moist and taste amazing! I like to coat the donuts completely with the sweet glaze while they are still warm so they soak it up and get that shiny glazed look you see at your favorite donut shop!
Homesteader Cornbread
This recipe comes from my mother-in-law in Canada. It's the most moist corn bread that I have ever tasted. It's great with chili con carne or as stuffing for your holiday turkey.
