CARIBBEAN FOOD | TOP 10 DISHES YOU NEED TO TRY IN CURAçAO

From curacao.com
  • Arepa Di Pampuna (Pumpkin Pancakes) Yes, yes, yes, the idea of making vegetable pancakes is questionable, but you need to trust me on this one. These pancakes are traditionally made with the “pampuna dòl di webu,” the so-called “egg yolk pumpkin” in reference to the vegetable’s richness in color, texture, and flavor.
  • Papaya Stobá (Papaya Stew) Ok, the idea of stewing papaya with meat and a pigtail may make you turn up your nose. You must think Curaçaoans are absolutely insane by now, and you are absolutely right.
  • Pastechi. Pastechis are crescent-shaped pastry snacks filled with cheese, beef, chicken, tuna, cod, or vegetables. Pastechis are popular for breakfast, so the freshest of these golden brown goodies are found in the morning at grocery stores or roadside snack-bars.
  • Kos di Boka Dushi (Assorted sweets) “Dushi” is the most iconic word in Papiamentu. Dushi can mean “enjoyable,” “sweet,” or even “sweetheart.” We use it to describe music, people, experiences, and even food.
  • Sopi di Banana (Plantain Soup) The “sòpi di banana” is actually a plantain soup. In Papiamentu, “bakoba” is the word for banana, and “banana” is the word for plantain.

  • Yambo (Okra Soup) An important and authentic Curaçao dish is a soup called yambo or for some guiambo. The base of the soup is made with okra, making it look a little slimy.
  • Sopi di Bonchi Korá (Red Kidney Bean Soup) On Mondays, this dish can be found on the menu of various eateries. On the first day of the New Year, it is a tradition to eat beans as they are said to bring prosperity and happiness.
  • Sòpi di Karni (Creole Beef Soup) A soup found almost everywhere in Curaçao is the very well-known and tasty beef soup. At almost every occasion that brings people together you will find creole beef soup, because it is easy to make, rich in vitamins, and simply delicious.
  • Stoba di Baka or Karni Stobá (Beef Stew) Some call it stobá di baka, others karni stobá, but both names refer to the same delicious dish. The secret of this dish is patience, because the longer you leave the beef to simmer on a low heat, the more tender and flavorful it becomes.
  • Kabritu Stobá (Goat Stew) The main difference between karni stobá and kabritu stobá is the type of meat. Goat meat has a special taste but is less readily available and therefore somewhat more expensive.
