About Jamaican oxtail
Jamaican oxtail is a flavorful dish originating from Jamaican cuisine, known for its rich, savory taste and hearty appeal. The dish features oxtail, which is slowly braised to tender perfection with a blend of spices such as garlic, thyme, scallions, and allspice, alongside ingredients like onions, carrots, beans, and tomatoes. The sauce is often thickened with browning and has a mildly sweet and smoky flavor. Oxtail is a good source of protein, iron, and collagen, which supports skin and joint health. However, it is also naturally high in fat and cholesterol, making moderation key for maintaining a balanced diet. Served typically with rice, peas, or dumplings, Jamaican oxtail stands out as a comforting and culturally rich dish enjoyed across the world.
