Montserrat's national dish is goat water, a (not too thick or thin) goat meat stew (made from the meat of the male (ram) goat) and served with crispy bread rolls.[1] It bears resemblance to the Irish stew and can be served with a variety of foods, such as bread, and rice.[2]
The Montserrat cuisine resembles the general British and Caribbean one, as it is situated in the Caribbean zone and it is a British territory.[citation needed] The cuisine includes a wide range of light meats, like fish, seafood and chicken, which are mostly grilled, fried or roasted.[citation needed] It is a fusion of multiple cultures, including Spanish, French, African, Indian and Amerindian.[citation needed]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
