PUERTO RICAN MONDONGO
This simple, nourishing stew of tripe and vegetables is found in innumerable variations throughout Latin America and around the Caribbean. On the islands of Aruba and Curaçao, it is known as sopi mondongo. Cooking Puerto Rican food is a bit similar to Island and Spain cuisine; it has a distinctive flavor combined with foreign influences using native seasonings and ingredients. Serve in deep bowls with white rice and avocados.

SANCOCHO
Sancocho, a word often used as slang by Puerto Ricans to mean a big old mix of things, is a rustic stew eaten across the Caribbean and made with every imaginable combination of proteins and vegetables. My father cooked his with beef, corn and noodles; my mom with chicken breasts, lean pork and sweet plantains; my grandmother with beef, pork on the bone and yautia. As such, I've rarely used a recipe, so this one is based largely on observation, taste memory and what I like. Pretty much every ingredient can be swapped out, and it also makes for a sumptuous vegetarian dish without meat. Sancocho epitomizes the resilience of Puerto Rican people, as it is often prepared in times of crisis - such as after a hurricane - and made with whatever you have on hand.

Steps:
- Peel and cut the yuca, yautia, green plantain and yellow plantain into 1-inch pieces. Scrape out the seeds, then chop the calabaza, skin on, into 1-inch pieces. Put each ingredient in a separate bowl, adding water to cover vegetables in order to prevent them from turning brown while you prepare the rest of the soup.
- Husk the corn, then slice it into 2-inch-thick segments. Set aside.
- Season pork (or beef) and chicken with 1/2 tablespoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium-high. Add the pork and brown on all sides for 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a clean, large bowl, then add the chicken to the same pot, and brown on both sides for another 5 minutes, adding oil as needed if the pot gets dry. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the same bowl as the pork.
- Reduce heat to medium and add sofrito to the pot, scraping up any browned bits of meat and incorporating them into the mix. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until liquid has evaporated and mixture darkens in color.
- Return the pork, chicken and any accumulated juices to the pot. Add the stock, bay leaves and remaining 1 tablespoon salt, and bring to a boil over high heat. Once simmering, reduce heat to medium-low and cook uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- To keep the vegetables from falling apart, add each one in order of firmness, cooking each for 5 minutes before adding the next. Begin with the yuca, then yautia, green plantain, yellow plantain, calabaza and corn, cooking the yuca for a total of 30 minutes and the corn for only 5 minutes.
- Add chorizo and stir well to incorporate. Cook for another 10 to 15 minutes over medium-low heat until meat and vegetables are tender and break easily with a fork. Because of all the starches and meat in this dish, this stew tends to be thick and rich. Some of the vegetables will fall apart, giving it a porridge consistency. This is a good thing.
- Adjust salt to taste, and serve with fresh bread or white rice on the side.

MOFONGO
Mofongo might not look like much, but it sure is tasty. Mashed green plantains with garlic, olive oil and pork rinds (or bacon). Mofongo goes well with chicken or fish broth and can be stuffed with garlic shrimp, carne frita or octopus salad. It can also be formed into small balls and dropped in soups or served directly in a mortar. This is one of my many guilty pleasures!

- Pernil. Pernil is the Boricua version of lechon, Latin American-style roast pork. According to The Sofrito Project, pernil is a staple on Puerto Rican tables at Christmas, but you can also get it from restaurants and food stalls throughout the year.
- Arroz con gandules. Almost every culture has some kind of rice and beans dish. Whether it's South Asian pilaf, Cajun red beans, or Central American gallo pinto, this comforting combo has won over fans across the globe.
- Mofongo. Puerto Rico is a country that has endured several waves of colonization over the centuries, with each new group of people adding their own ingredients and techniques to the island's cuisine.
- Asopao de pollo. It seems like there is a universal human need for chicken soup. What soothes the soul (or possibly a hangover) better than a steaming bowl of brothy chicken with some rice or noodles floating around in it?
- Arroz con dulce. Literally translated to "rice with sweetness," arroz con dulce is the Boricua answer to rice pudding. It brings a pop of Caribbean flavor to what can often be a bland, starchy mush, adding coconut milk, cloves, canela (Mexican cinnamon), and fresh ginger to the rice as it cooks (via Goya).
