I know what cassereep is, a syrup made from the root of cassava plant. I used to make this very same pepperpot years ago in London and could buy both cassava and cassereep and North End Road market.
I'm now living in France and would like to cook this dish again. Is there a grocers in Enland that will post me some cassereep?

This is a very delicious dish and can last for weeks, all you need to do is reheat it every day on the hob! Bread is also a good Accompaniment. enjoy!
