Dish: Bajan Fish Cake (also known as Flying Fish Cakes)Description: These delicacies are made with mashed fish, typically the flying fish which is a common marine species in Caribbean waters, mashed with spices, breadcrumbs, and sometimes potatoes. They're shaped into patties or cakes and either fried or baked. The result is a flavorful, slightly crispy outside with a tender inside that showcases the flavors of the fish and spices.
Dish: Cou-Cou and Flying FishDescription: This traditional Barbados dish consists of couple (a type of dough made from cornmeal or flour, often seasoned with spices and herbs) mixed with stewed fish, typically the locally abundant flying fish. The coupling of textures and flavors – the light, flaky fish with the hearty, spiced cou-cou – makes this a comforting, satisfying meal emblematic of Bajan cuisine.
Dish: Macaroni PieDescription: This popular side dish is a blend of macaroni pasta, cheese, butter, evaporated milk, and spices, all baked together into a creamy, indulgent pie. It's a beloved comfort food in Barbados, often served alongside other dishes at parties, events, and family gatherings. Variations can include the addition of vegetables like peas, carrots, or spinach.Historical Appearance
