Haitian cuisine is a veritable feast of flavors, where spices and aromas play a central role. Essential Haitian ingredients don’t just add flavor; they create a rich and complex aromatic profile that characterizes this vibrant cuisine. Among the most commonly used spices is chili pepper, which brings heat and intensity. Herbs such as thyme and parsley are often used fresh, adding a touch of freshness and depth. Garlic and ginger are also key elements, bringing spicy and earthy notes. Another iconic spice is clove, which is often used in marinades and stews. Saffron and turmeric are also present in Haitian cuisine, bringing not only color but also unique flavors. Lime zest and lemon juice are frequently used to enhance dishes, adding a refreshing acidity. Over time, our preferences evolve, and certain ingredients take up more or less space on our plates. Is there a spice you’ve abandoned or, on the contrary, rediscovered over time?
