#carifestaxv
What do you know about the Caribbean? Well, let me tell you for free—it’s a treasure chest of flavors bursting with character, spice, and story. This past week at #CarifestaXV, I’ve eaten my way through the islands and discovered that the Caribbean doesn’t just cook, it celebrates through food. Some dishes whispered familiar notes to my Ghanaian palate, like the creamy, comforting peanut soup from Suriname or the hearty saltfish mac pie from Barbados—each bite tugging at memories of home while still offering something new. Then there were the revelations, like Grenada’s famous Oil Down, a one-pot wonder layered with breadfruit, coconut milk, callaloo, and salted meats—complex, earthy, and utterly unforgettable. Every plate told a story of migration, memory, and mastery. The Caribbean table is truly one of abundance, where flavors collide, harmonize, and dance just like the region’s music. A week at Carifesta has proven that in the Caribbean, food isn’t just eaten—it’s experienced. @mulinde_iv Chakabars CARIFESTA @barbadosinghana @thebtmi VisitBarbados

#AmeyawCanCook I recently returned from #Barbados with some mauby syrup and decided to incorporate it into homemade almond cookies. I am also exploring creative ways to infuse some of the Caribbean dishes I experienced during #CarifestaXV into future recipes. Mauby syrup is a sweet and mildly bitter concentrate derived from the bark of the mauby tree, native to the Caribbean and South Florida. It is primarily used to prepare a traditional bittersweet beverage when mixed with water. Additionally, it serves as a flavoring ingredient in various drinks and desserts. Traditionally, it is believed to offer several health benefits, including supporting healthy blood pressure, easing arthritis symptoms, and functioning as a natural diuretic.
