Turtle Beach recipes - something new for your family?
Long days spent exploring the local shops and museums or soaking up the gorgeous Caribbean surf and sun are bound to give vacationers a formidable appetite. Luckily, Barbados has enough options to suit every palate.In fact, the culinary styles found on the island reflect the rich cultural heritage of the area while still managing to incorporate many pleasant yet unexpected international flavors. In recent years, world-class gourmet chefs have begun to arrive, and their skilled presence is noted in the gourmet dishes served in Barbados' newest upscale restaurants. Many of these establishments import spices, vegetables, and other fresh ingredients directly from Europe and the United States in order to complement local fare, a different way of providing travelers with an intriguing blend of the familiar and the exotic. Most travelers will be eager to sample the island's local fare. Barbados culinary styles tend to incorporate many fresh, regional ingredients. Seafood is a staple, and local fishermen provide a great variety of regional fish including snapper, dolphin fish (also known as mahi mahi), and many types of shellfish. Additionally, flying fish is featured on a vast majority of menus. This treat, a national favorite, can be served in many ways. Locals enjoy "cutters" which are large flying fish sandwiches often served with a side of "coucou," a dish made from cornmeal seasoned with okra and topped with a spicy blend of tomatoes, onions, and peppers. Other favorites include a Bajan "pepper-pot," a hearty stew made of oxtail and beef simmered for days in a very rich, spicy gravy as well as milder options like "conkies," a blend of cornmeal, coconut, pumpkin, raisins, sweet potatoes and spices steamed inside a banana leaf. Not to be outdone, the drinks available on the island of Barbados are also unique and flavorful. One of the most popular concoctions is "falernum," a liqueur comprised of rum, sugar, lime, and almond essence. "Mauby," a nonalcoholic alternative, is made by boiling and straining a local bark. Once sweetened, it tastes like a very potent sarsaparilla. Visitors are usually pleasantly surprised by the wide range of foods offered throughout the region because the multicultural influences ensure that everyone is able to find something they like. Enjoying the delicious fare that abounds on Barbados is the perfect way to end fun-filled days spent exploring the island.
