Cooking Barbados

 Gastronomy

Seafood is abundant. Barbados offers considerable choice of fish. The most common, the flying fish, can be found in both refined cuisine and in sandwiches. Add yam, plantain and sweet potato, and you will get a traditional dish. Try the "cou-cou", a dish of maize flour and okra. "Pepperpot" is a spicy stew consisting of vegetables served with the inevitable rice and red beans cooked in coconut milk. "Conkies" bring together maize flour, coconut, pumpkin, grape, sweet potato and spices, and are steam-cooked in a banana leaf. Chicken is seasoned with curry and accompanied by a Creole sauce based on tomatoes, peppers and onions. Enjoy papaya, pineapple, mango, guava, coconut, and the fruit from the bread tree. Discover the Barbados rum, which is dark amber and strong. The island produces Mountgay and Cockspur and white rums such as Alleynes.
