Though not classically trained, my cooking is deeply influenced by my Caribbean background and the rich tapestry of cultures in New York City. Growing up, I learned from my grandmothers, who cooked elaborate meals for our large family gatherings. Their influence, along with my exposure to diverse cuisines throughout the city, has shaped my unique culinary style.
Join me in exploring these recipes that bring together tradition, community, and the vibrant spirit of the Caribbean. This cookbook is not just a collection of dishes; it's a story of family, culture, and the joy of sharing food with loved ones.
