Umququzeleli we-Island Pops, u-Khalid Hamid, utya enye yeentyatyambo zakhe ze-sorrel pop, incasa eyaziwayo yase-Trinidadian, e-Crown Heights, eBrooklyn.UNina Roberts Kwikona exakekileyo eCrown Heights, eBrooklyn, uKhalid Hamid kunye nenkosikazi yakhe uShelly Marshall banokufunyanwa bekha i-ice cream kubathengi kwivenkile yabo Isiqithi sePops . Benza kakhulu iidessert eziqanduselwe, ukusuka kwiqhwa ukuya kwi-ice cream, eneencasa ezivela eTrinidad, apho bakhulele bobabini. Okwangoku, izinto zabo ezimbini ezithandwa kakhulu yi-ice cream emuncu, eyenziwe ngeziqhamo eziswiti ezimnandi ezikhula eTrinidad kunye ne-pink sorbet eyenziwe ngeentyatyambo ze-sorrel. Imenyu inezinye izinto ezothusayo kubandakanya i-lemon nutmeg cookie kunye ne-orenji bitters ice cream, kunye nelemon lime basil ice pops.
Kude kube lihlobo lasehlotyeni, uHamid noMarshall benza ukutya kwabo okubandayo kwindawo ekhitshini ekwabelwana ngayo kwaye bathengisa indalo yabo emibalabala kwiminyhadala nakwiminyhadala. NgoJulayi 2018, batshintshela kwivenkile yezitena kunye nodaka kwiNostrand Avenue, phakathi kwamanye amashishini aseIndiya aseNtshona afana neebhaki zaseTrinidadian ezipompa iiaroma ezineswekile kunye neevenkile zeepatty, kunye namashishini amatsha abonisa indawo eguqukayo, njengendawo yokutyela yaseFrance yaseSenegal, a Ibhari yetiki kunye nezindlu zekofu.

Ngomso wamva nje uHamid wayalela ivenkile yedwa, ngelixa uMarshall wayehleli ekhaya ecinga ngabantwana babo abancinci. Umoya opholileyo ophuma kwenye yeentsuku zokuqala zelanga ezinemozulu efudumeleyo unqamleze kwiifestile ezinkulu zevenkile esembindini.
Ubumelwane obuqhelekileyo kunye nolwazi okokuqala abathengi beqala ukwenza umgca ukuphuma emnyango. UHamid, ngamanye amaxesha ekhonza abathengi abathathu ngaxeshanye, ebesenza ixesha lokuthetha nabantwana, anike iisampulu ze-ayisikrimu, achaze incasa kwaye abulise abahlobo ngokufudumeleyo ngamaqhuma ngamanye amaxesha. Akukho mntu wayebonakala ekukhathalele ukulinda.
Ngexesha lekhefu lokubaleka emva kwemini, uHamid ucacisile ukuba kutheni yena noMarshall, ambiza ngokuba nguWifey, baqala ngokusungula ishishini labo emva kokuba esebenze kwicandelo elingenzi nzuzo, iincasa zabo zaseIndiya zaseNtshona kunye nokutshintshela kwivenkile yezitena nodaka.
Ngaba uhlala ufuna ukuba ngumrhwebi we-ice cream?
Hayi, ndize esikolweni ndisuka eTrinidad [nase] Tobago ngo-2002 ndize kufundela ubuchwephesha bengqondo. Ndaye ndaqhuba iinkqubo zokufundela abantu abakhubazeke ngengqondo kangangeminyaka eli-15; bekukho malunga nabantu abangama-70, abasebenzi abangama-30.
Emva kokuba nditshatile, ndacinga, ndisebenzela ukungenzi nzuzo, ndiyapha, ndinceda wonke umntu. Akukho nto ishiyekileyo ukunika usapho kunye nokwakha into. Kulapho ndaqala khona ukujija ngombono wokuba neshishini lohlobo oluthile.
Ngaba ukhethe i-ice cream ngokungakhethiyo?
Into eyenzekileyo kukuba umfazi wam ebegula kakhulu ebuya eTrinidad; wayenesi sifo sibizwa ngokuba yi-chikungunya, ngenxa yokulunywa yingcongconi. Emva kweveki yomkhuhlane owoyikisayo kunye neentlungu zomzimba, wayenqwenela i-ice cream yesusop. Ndizamile ukuyenza, kwaye ayiphumanga ilungile.
Khange siyifumane naphina kumgangatho esiwuqhelile. Akukho mntu wenza iidessert eziqingqiweyo ezikumgangatho ophezulu zisebenzisa iincasa zaseNtshona yeIndiya. Siqaphele ukuba sinendawo apha. Ke, uMfazi wenze ikhosi eyaziwayo yomkhenkce kwiYunivesithi yasePenn State kwaye wandifundisa indlela yokwenza ngayo.
Ubafumene njani abathengi bakho bokuqala?
Sinabahlobo bethu abakhuthaza iqela. Senze i-cocktail popsicles kwaye sabanika kula matheko. Yayiyinto nje yokwazisa kunye nendlela yokufumana igama lethu kuluntu lwaseNtshona Indiya. Ekugqibeleni, abantu baqala ukuthatha iiodolo kwaye yaqhakaza kwishishini.
Eyona nto isinike amandla ethu okuqala kukuphumelela Isicwangciso seshishini sokubhala sePowerUP Kwithala leencwadi laseBrooklyn ngo-2015. Bakhokela iklasi ngamanyathelo okubhala isicwangciso seshishini, kwaye isicwangciso ngasinye seshishini singeniswa kukhuphiswano ekugqibeleni. Siphumelele i-15,000 yeedola, kwaye yile nto besidla ngokufumana ilayisensi kwaye sisisiqalo sethu.
Chaza ezinye zeencasa zakho zeTrinidadia.
Sisebenzisa i-soursop eninzi; kukutya okumsulwa! Xa uyisilayite uyayivula ikhangeleka njengobisi olunembewu. E-Trinidad, sisebenzisa i-sorrel malunga nexesha leKrisimesi xa iintyatyambo ziqala ukudubula. Siyenza njengeti, inongwe ngesinamoni kunye nee-clove. Sikhonza i-ayisi khrim yeGuinness; IGuinness iziswe ngamaNgesi ebeseTrinidad ixesha le-loooooong. IGuinness yenye yezinto esizithandayo esizithandayo [ehleka]. 
Isiqhamo seSoursop kuthiwa sinambitha njengokudityaniswa kwepinapple kunye nequnube elinombala ococekileyo, ofana nebhanana okanye ikhokhonathi.I-Pixabay
Emva kokusebenza kwindawo yekhitshi ekwabelwana ngayo kunye nokuthengisa iidessert kwiminyhadala nakumatheko, ngaba yayikukuphazamiseka-luvo ukuvula ivenkile yezitena nodaka?
Sasisoyika ixesha elide ukuba sibe nezitena nodaka. Besikhululekile ngaphandle komnye, uyazi, ungaya uhambe njengoko uthanda.
Kodwa sithathe iminyaka emibini sakha oku kulandelayo, ukwenza ukuba iincasa zabantu zihambe kwaye iingqondo zizibuze ukuba ekugqibeleni siza kuba nini nevenkile-abantu bahlala bebuza kwaye bebuza. Ke siyenzile kunyaka ophelileyo. Yayilutshintsho olugudileyo. Senze ukhetho olululo; siye samkelwa ngokufudumeleyo ekuhlaleni.
Ndifuna ukuthi ukufumana le ndawo ngethuba, kodwa bekufana nentsikelelo. Besihamba nje esitratweni, sizibuza ukuba singayibeka phi le venkile. Kwenzekile ukuba singene kumnini-mhlaba, okwanguTrinidadian, kwaye wayenobabalo ngokwaneleyo ukuba asinike indawo ngexabiso elimangalisayo.
Ngaba ubudinga imali?
Singabantu bootstrappers! Kude kube sinezitena nodaka, besingakhange sikhuphe mali-mboleko okanye sithathe nabaphi na abatyali mali. Besisebenzisa nje imali yethu, ishishini belizikhathalela.
Ithala Leencwadi Loluntu laseBrooklyn liye lasothusa. Nje ukuba sithathe isigqibo sokuba sifuna isitena nodaka, Iinkonzo zethala leencwadi elincinci isincedile sayifumana I-BCNA [iZiko loShishino lwaMazwe aseMelika amatsha], kwaye babemangalisa ngokwaneleyo ukuba bancede ngemali ethile. Sisebenzise kwakhona i isixa semali mboleko yeKiva -Sasineentsuku ezingama-30 zokunyusa imali; sayenza ngosuku olunye.
Ngaphandle kweencasa zakho ezizodwa, ngaba ikhona enye into malunga nokuba ngumphambukeli ovela eTrinidad onefuthe kwishishini lakho?
Sikuqhelile ukuba kuncinci kakhulu kwaye senza okuninzi ngayo. Ukolula idola. Ukuzama ukusebenzisa le ndinayo nokwenza ukuba isebenze yinto endiyenza mihla le ndineshishini.
Iziqithi zenze ukuba ndingubani. Ndikhululekile kwaye ndineshishini elinento engahambi kakuhle yonke imihla, unomdla wokukhululeka, iyanceda imeko yam. Kwakhona, indlela yokuziphatha. KwiiCaribbean, sisebenza nzima kakhulu.
Ngaba unayo i-ice cream, ngaba usayitya?
Ngokwenene ndiye ndanyamezela i-lactose! [ehleka] Kwenzekile kunyaka ophelileyo, ke ndinazo ii-sorbets. Ngamaxesha athile, nditsho nje, Owu, isihogo nayo, kwaye ndiyayixuba i-ice cream kunye ne-sorbet.
Ngaba usebenzisa naluphi na uqeqesho lwakho lwengqondo ngoku?
Yonke imihla! [ehleka] Akukho mntu uza kwivenkile ye-ice cream engonwabanga, kodwa ukuba bayayenza, ndiyazama ukubayeka bonwabe. Ngamanye amaxesha ndizifumana ndihleli phantsi ndimamele nje abantu. Ndijonge ngokwam ndibonelela ngenkonzo, ndingathengisi nje i-ayisikhrim, ngakumbi impilo-amava apheleleyo esiqithi.
Le Q&A ihleliwe yaze yahlelwa ukuba icace.
