Welcome back to cooking.withnyc, the channel where New Yorkers keep it real and flavor speaks for itself. In today’s episode, three contestants from New York City — all proud Jamaicans — are bringing their best homemade Rasta Pasta recipes to the table. The twist? They’ll be tasting and judging each other’s dishes. At cooking.withnyc, food isn’t just eaten — it’s experienced. We use all five senses: 👀 Look – Is it colorful, creamy, and inviting? 👃 Smell – Does the aroma hit like a Sunday dinner at home? 👂 Sound – Is there a sizzle, a crunch, or a creamy stir? 🤲 Touch – Is the pasta cooked to perfection? 👅 Taste – Does the flavor deliver that Caribbean kick? Expect genuine reactions, honest feedback, and a lot of laughs as each dish is rated from 1 to 10 (10 being legendary). Will someone serve the ultimate Rasta Pasta, or will the heat be in the critiques? If you’re new here, welcome to the channel where culture, flavor, and honesty meet on one plate.
