Where can I learn more about Caribbean cuisine?
The Caribbean is home to some of the world’s most explosively flavorful cooking — dishes ranging from Jamaica’s jerk pork to Trinidad’s curries, from Puerto Rico’s crusty aranitos (plantain fritters) to Guadeloupe’s velvety vegetable soups, from the refreshing conch salads of the Bahamas to Cuba’s creamy rice puddings.
The Caribbean is a patchwork of islands, cuisines, and cultures. From the Carib Indians to the European colonists and their unfortunate slaves, each successive wave of immigrants has added its own unique flavors to the Caribbean cook pot.
