Haitian Spaghetti (Espageti)

Traditionally, Haitian Spaghetti (Espageti) can be made with hot dogs, sausage or smoked herring (aransol). As a kid one of my favorite meals was Haitian Spaghetti (Espageti). My mother would occasionally cook this for us after school and it would typically served with a nice piece of buttered bread. The meal can be served for breakfast or lunch. As with all recipes, the ingredients vary through out the process is always the same.

Haitian Beet Salad

If you have never had beets in your potato salad, then you have been missing out big time. Haitian beet salad has a flavor that will have you coming back for second and third servings. When people first see this pink/purple-ish meal looks unnatural, but after the first bite it’s hard going back to boring potato salad.

Haitian Shrimp

Haitian Shrimp in creole sauce is a common dish served mainly near the costal cities of Haiti. Ingredients in the dish vary from village to village, but is always the same at its base. The meal goes great any rice, plantains or corn meal. Here’s our version.
