Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the vibrant heart of the Caribbean lies an island that exudes passion, rhythm, and culinary marvels. Welcome to the world of Cuban cuisine, where the fusion of diverse influences and the artistry of its people have crafted a captivating culinary tapestry. Within the pages of this book, we invite you on a tantalizing journey through the vibrant streets of Havana, the verdant tobacco fields of Viñales, and the sun-kissed shores of Varadero. This is a celebration of the flavors that have come to define Cuban cuisine-a testament to the island's history, culture, and the indomitable spirit of its people. Cuban cuisine is an intriguing blend of indigenous Taino, African, Spanish, and Caribbean culinary traditions. From the moment these disparate influences converged on the island's shores, a culinary revolution was set in motion. Over centuries of cultural exchange, each group left an indelible mark on the gastronomic landscape, resulting in a unique fusion of flavors, techniques, and ingredients. At the heart of Cuban cuisine lies the concept of "sabor" or flavor-the soulful essence that permeates every dish. It is the unmistakable zest of citrus, the smoky richness of slow-roasted meats, and the piquant spice of Caribbean peppers. These flavors are the embodiment of Cuban culture, reflecting its vibrant history, resilient people, and deep-rooted traditions. Within the pages of this cookbook, you will embark on a culinary odyssey that brings the authentic tastes of Cuba into your kitchen. From classic dishes like ropa vieja, the shredded beef stew simmered in a fragrant tomato sauce, to the iconic Cuban sandwich, a harmonious marriage of roasted pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard, each recipe is a testament to the diverse influences that have shaped Cuban cuisine.

This cookbook includes over 50 recipes, each in Spanish with side-by-side English translation-- all of them classic Cuban fare and old Havana specialties adapted for the North American kitchen. Among the recipes included are: Ajiaco (famous Cuban Stew), Boiled Pargo with Avocado Sauce, Lobster Havanaise, Tamal en Cazuela (Soft Tamal), Quimbombo (okra), Picadillo, Roast Suckling Pig, and Boniatillo (Sweet Potato Dulce), along with a whole chapter on famous Cuban cocktails and beverages.
