BAHAMIAN STYLE PEAS AND RICE
Peas and rice, often served under a tropical sun. You may have had it last while sitting on soft white sand, and looking at a clear blue sea. Goes excellently with other traditional Caribbean fare, such as chicken curry or souse.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, combine the oil, bacon, onion, bell pepper, celery, thyme leaves, a pinch of salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the bacon is crisped and the onion is tender and fragrant, about 10 minutes.
- Add the garlic and rice and toast the rice until it has a nutty, popcorn-like scent, about 10 minutes more.
- Stir in the peas, tomatoes, tomato sauce, Worcestershire, habanero pepper, and 3 cups water. Bring the pot to a boil, and then reduce to a low simmer and cover. Cook until the rice absorbs the liquid, 35 to 40 minutes. Try to avoid lifting the lid until the 30-minute mark, as the steam helps cook the rice.
- Serve warm.

BAHAMIAN PEAS & RICE
I do not like beans in any way, shape or form. That said, my fiancee found it very amusing when I ate this dish every day for lunch during our vacation in the Bahamas. It wasn't until we returned that he let me know these 'peas' were actually beans!!

- Peas ‘n’ Rice. You’ve probably never considered pairing these two side dishes together to create an amazing side. Well, in the Bahamas they’ve done it – using pigeon peas, an African veggie that’s a little more like a lentil than the sugar-snap peas you’ll find in the States.

From shouldbecruising.com
- Cracked conch. The Bahamas are famous for conch (pronounced “konk”), and you’ll find this mollusk prepared in lots of different ways throughout the islands.
- Peas n’ rice. Of all the foods in the Bahamas, peas n’ rice is the one you’ll likely see the most often. Served as a side dish with just about any meal, this traditional recipe evolved from the earlier peas n’ grits that were a typical meal made from staple crops.
- Rock lobster. As a native New Englander, I’ve eaten quite a few lobsters in my day. But the rock lobsters you’ll find in the Bahamas are a bit different from Maine lobsters in their appearance, taste, and texture.
- Conch salad. Fans of ceviche or poke will love trying conch salad in the Bahamas. This tasty salad traditionally made with fresh conch, chopped onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers is the perfect light dish for a hot day!
- Souse. Pronounced “sowse”, this hearty stew is well-known as a hangover cure (keep that in mind if you have too many Goombay Smashes at the beach bar!)
- Stew fish. Fish may not be a breakfast food in every culture, but stew fish is part of a traditional Bahamian breakfast! Originally made from turbot, today you might be likely to find this stew full of grouper or red snapper.
- Johnnycake. Sometimes written as Johnny cake, this cornbread recipe has been made in the Bahamas since just after the American Revolution. The recipe came from the enslaved people brought to the island with the fleeing Loyalists.
- Baked crab. During crab season, you’re bound to see vendors selling live crabs all over the islands—even on sidewalks and in parking lots! But I bet you’d prefer your crabs cooked, right?
- Benny cake. The first time I saw Benny cake on a dessert menu in the Bahamas, I wondered who Benny was and if his cake was any good. Then I tried it and found that it’s not a cake at all, it’s more like a candy.
- Grits. Familiar to those living in the southern US, grits are a staple breakfast food that’s also a traditional dish in the Bahamas. But if (like me) you live in a place where grits are rarely on the menu, give them a try when you’re visiting the islands!
