With all the seasonal ingredients I have been using lately, you knew a Peach Iced Tea was about to be shared here sooner rather than later. As I mentioned when I shared my Peach Ice Cream recipe last week, I live within 20 minutes of Winona, arguably the fruit-growing capital of Canada. With peaches in…
There are few drinks that say Caribbean quite like Mauby, and this Refreshing Caribbean Mauby Lemonade is one of my favourite ways to enjoy it on a hot day. While this isn’t your traditional Caribbean Mauby recipe, it beautifully combines the distinctive earthy, slightly bitter notes of Mauby with the bright, thirst-quenching flavour of freshly…
This version of Pepper Choka is less intense than the Ultimate Pepper Choka I shared a few years back, where I used a combination of some of the hottest peppers available to create an extremely spicy condiment. While this version backs off the heat just a little, don’t let that fool you. It’s still packed…
It’s been a summer of lemonades in my home, so this Strawberry Lemonade fits nicely with the heat-busting, refreshing drinks I’ve been making for Pali (Zyair) and his sisters. The Peach Mango Lemonade went somewhat viral, while the Sorrel Lemonade spoke to those of us more interested in Caribbean flavours. Then there was the Big…
Plantain Casserole is one of those comforting dishes I eagerly look forward to whenever I can find good, ripe plantains on sale at our local grocery stores. There was a time when the plantains would have come straight from the kitchen garden behind our home in rural Trinidad, in the small village of Guaracara, where…
If you've been around caribbeanpot.com/ for a while, you'll know we've done Shrimp Fried Rice before, but that version was cooked indoors in a wok. This time, we’re taking things outside and firing up the Traeger Flatrock griddle to make this incredible Jerk Shrimp Fried Rice. The intense heat from the hot griddle gives everything…
If you know Trinbago food culture, then you already know why I’m saying these Saltfish Buljol Saheena Bites may very well be one of the ultimate snacks or appetizers to have when friends and family are coming over for a proper lime. Taking two things we absolutely love in Trinidad and Tobago, a well-seasoned Saltfish…
If you’re looking for a fresh, vibrant way to enjoy summer peaches, this Perfect Peach Chutney is one of those recipes I think you’ll come back to again and again. While Peach Chutney may not carry the same deep-rooted popularity in Caribbean kitchens as our beloved mango chutney, I thought it was the perfect addition…
Saltfish Buljol Pizza may not be my original idea, but this version here is entirely my own, and I’ll admit, I’m very pleased with how it came together. A few years back, I noticed a pizza shop in Trinidad making their own Saltfish Buljol Pizza, and judging from the reaction online, people were absolutely loving…
Stewed Oxtail is one of those deeply comforting dishes synonymous with the Caribbean, especially Jamaica, even though it’s enjoyed throughout the region and in the many places we now call home around the world. In preparing this Smoked Stewed Oxtail recipe, I leaned on a tip Chef Chaz Brown shared with me a few months…
This Grilled Corn Salad is not necessarily a traditional Caribbean recipe, with our adoration of grilled corn (we say roast corn) throughout the Caribbean, along with the fresh and vibrant ingredients used here, it’s definitely a crowd pleaser, and something I’ve served many guests over the years. The combination of smoky grilled corn, sweet pineapple,…
When the sweltering heat of summer starts to settle in and the scent of freshly cut grass drifts through the air, there’s nothing more refreshing than a tall glass of homemade Lemonade. This Mango Peach Strawberry Lemonade has quickly become one of my favorite ways to cool down, combining bright citrus with the sweet, fruity…
