East Winds: Recipes, History and Tales from the Hidden Caribbean (Hardcover)

Join Riaz Phillips on a culinary journey to illuminate the hidden Caribbean. This is not a place but a kaleidoscope of underrepresented cultures found in Jamaica down to Trinidad & Tobago, Guyana and Suriname. In recipes and stories, Riaz writes evocatively of the harsh global history that has shaped the culture of these lands today, with influences from North India, South China, West Africa and Europe. Here, find national treasures like doubles and bake & "shark", transporting you to the heart of Trinidad, as well as hearty Guyanese family feasts like pepperpot. Plant-based staples like bhaji and bodhi plus a host of curries are accompanied by a chapter dedicated to the regional love of roti.
