WHAT IS BAMMY?
Bammy is a flatbread made from cassava. The cassava is grated then squeezed of its liquid and parched
set in round ring molds. They are then sold in their “dry” form and are usually rehydrated with coconut
milk or water before being steamed or fried. They make a great accompaniment to a myriad of dishes
including fried fish.
As a starchy carb it makes an awesome base for a flatbread. It’s naturally gluten-free, so it can be
enjoyed by those with a gluten sensitivity. In fact, there are a couple restaurants in Jamaica now make
gluten free pizza with bammy as the crust.
To make this one, I opted to steam my bammy. After steaming, I briefly seared it in a non stick pan so it
would be sturdy enough for the toppings. Alternately you could fry them and top it but I was trying to go
a little lighter on the calories since I was topping it with the ackee and salmon.
