The essential cookbook for Trinidad & Tobago is celebrating 20 years with this anniversary edition that features new recipes, photos and cultural notes about this unique Caribbean cuisine!
"As twenty years of successful publication has proven: the importance of this book cannot be overstated-for anyone claiming Trinidadian descent and for those non-Trinis who simply love our glorious culture."
-Chef Chaz Brown (from the foreword)
"In Trinidad, the best compliment a cook can hope for is to be told he or she has 'sweet hands.' It means the person is so talented in the kitchen that anything he or she makes-from a sandwich to a seven-course meal-is like manna from the gods."-from the Introduction
