Late Post: Haiti

In late January, we made an Around the World dinner from Haiti.
It was a big hit: salmon, black beans, and rice are always favorites here. Haitian black beans and rice are flavored with cinnamon, not a spice I usually use in bean dishes, but I might now. Yum, yum, yum.

For dessert, I made Pain Patate, a sweet potato pudding. Steve and I loved it. M wasn't as impressed as us. Here's a link to the Pain Patate recipe.

On a non-culinary note, if you want to read a different take on the situation in Haiti, I strongly recommend this blog entry by travel guidebook writer Rick Steves.
