Written by a Caribbean goods importer, this book fits in the genre of Caribbean cooking books looking to document some of the best traditional dishes throughout the region. The book is organized by type of dish (soup, salad, etc.) and every recipe has a short explanation of origin and place of the dish in Caribbean cuisine. A standout section in the book a drink section with many enticing rum concoction I have not seen elsewhere. I have to admit I’ve had a lot of fun sampling many of them.
Also, in case you have trouble locating some of the ingredients, the book has a helpful list of Caribbean food importers that may come in handy for obtaining Caribbean ingredients.
