Cooking St. Lucia
To truly experience a new culture means appreciating the customs and traditions as well as being adventurous in sampling the local cooking. St. Lucia boasts several exotic traditional dishes including the National Dish - Green Figs & Saltfish.
"The first time I ate green figs was in St. Lucia. When I was first offered it, I shunned it adamant that the only way that bananas could taste good and were meant to be eaten was ripe. Thank heavens that that was a loooong time ago. This week's column encourages the reader to try new tastes, new flavours, new ingredients and to even venture out like I did, and try familiar ingredients in different ways and in varying stages. I do hope that you'll take the challenge and do the same." - Cynthia, Tastes Like Home
