Jamaican Shrimp Pepper Pot Soup image

Also called callaloo, this dish has many guises and often is made with meats. The dish dates back to the Arawak Indians, who prepared a stew that was kept going on the fire with the addition of new ingredients every day. This version is made simply with shrimp.

This soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

Not a fan of this soup. The flavors didn't really come together for me.

I had some issues with the recipe. The soup was too watery and the shrimp were overcooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This soup was an absolute delight! The combination of flavors from the shrimp, peppers, and spices was incredibly harmonious. It had a nice kick of heat without being overpowering, and the shrimp cooked perfectly, retaining its tender texture.
