Here are some favourites you
should try:
1. Buljol: shredded saltfish mixed
with onions, tomatoes and olive oil,
often served with coconut bake

2. Bake-and-fish: the tradition
is shark but, for environmental
sustainability, we strongly suggest
substituting flying fish, mahi mahi,
squid/calamari, carite, tilapia, wahoo,
lionfish — or a vegetarian option —
to go with the fried leavened bread
(bake). We promise it will taste just
as good, and be much better for our
ecology! (Courtesy Cooking with Ria)
3. Callaloo: soup made from dasheen
leaves, coconut milk, ochroes, pumpkin,
and sometimes salted meat or crab
(Courtesy Cooking with Ria)
4. Chow: fruit (like mango, pineapple or
plums) pickled in vinegar, salt, and pepper

peas (Courtesy TDC)

soya with olives, capers, and raisins in a
cornmeal casing and steamed in banana
leaves — a Christmas staple

rice, pigeon peas, and meat, often
