Fine Haitian Cuisine is a wide-ranging collection of Haitian home-style recipes for delicious, authentic, and traditional dishes. The book is the expression of Mrs. Ménager’s lifelong love and appreciation of Haitian food. Thoughtful suggestions accompany most recipes along with a useful, illustrated glossary.
Haitian Cuisine is a Creole style cuisine, derived mostly from African and French cuisines, with a dash of Native American and Spanish influences. The food is cooked with a respectable amount of spices and herbs among which tomato, onion, and pepper are customary. Our cuisine includes a few hot dishes but it is not always hot.
Fine Haitian Cuisine is a gastronomic delight, an extraordinary trip through good memories, traditions, and a way of life. It is both entertaining and informative. It will be a great gift for Haitian-Americans raised in the USA, and anyone interested in Caribbean cuisine. Consider it as a gift for weddings, Christmas, Mother’s Day, birthdays, and any other celebrations.
This third edition contains new and revised recipes, many professional photographs and implementation of suggestions from users.
