Caribbean Sushi is easily one of my favorite foods… ever! In this recipe I combine shrimp tempura with tropical ingredients like sweet plantains, and avocado for the ultimate fusion of Japanese and Caribbean flavors.
Limber de parcha are ice pops bursting with the vibrant flavor of tropical passion fruit. In Puerto Rico, limber is traditionally made in small plastic cups. Once frozen, you flip the ice pop upside down and place it back in the cup to make it easier to eat. I like adding a popsicle stick to make them easier to hold while eating. You could also use a popsicle mold to make popsicles or paletas.
These Cholula Hot and Sweet chicken wings are insanely delicious. They have just the right balance of spicy and sweet with a combination of Cholula hot sauce and honey. I like to serve the chicken wings with arroz con gandules for a delicious meal or alongside other appetizers for the ultimate game day party platter.

Blackened shrimp with mango salsa is the perfect weeknight meal for busy days when you need to get dinner on the table in under 30 minutes.

Pair it with a delicious cocktail like a guava or passion fruit margarita for an instant trip to the tropics!
Aceite de achiote or annatto oil is used to add color to food. Annatto is an orange-red condiment and is the main component in sazón, which gives food an orange color. In Puerto Rico, we use annatto oil to make arroz con gandules, pasteles, alcapurrias, and so much more. I even make homemade sazón with ground annatto, and it turns out amazing!
