•SamKanKook Lab: "Dombré pwa  rouj"• 
•
🇬🇧 This dish from the french Caribbean is one of my favourite food. This is just so good. Obviously, I add my personal touch and reimagined the dressing of some ingredients.
I'll tell you more in a couple of post. 
•
🇨🇵Ce mets traditionnel des antilles est l'un de mes plats préférés. Evidemment, ici j'y rajoute ma touche personnelle et j'ai repensé l'utilisation de certains ingrédients.
Je vous en dis plus dans quelques posts

•Ingredient Focus: Red Bean | Haricots Rouges • 

🇬🇧 [🇫🇷 👇🏾]
Did you know that they are one of the most widely consumed dried beans in the world?
 
One of the richest plant foods in terms of protein, while being free of fat, unlike animal sources, kidney beans are a source of vitamin B9, potassium, iron, phosphorus and fibre. They also contain calcium and magnesium.
 
Red beans are also one of those ingredients that were often use in my grandparents' cuisine.
 
I think all my "french Caribbean people" will be able to guess the next post, I couldn't do a serie on my grandmother's dishes without this dish.
Will you be able to guess which one?

🇫🇷 Saviez-vous que c’est l’un des haricots secs les plus consommés dans le monde ?
 
Parmis les aliments d’origine végétale les plus riches en protéines, tout en étant dépourvus de graisses, contrairement à celles de sources animales, le haricot rouge est source de vitamine B9, potassium,fer, phosphore, fibres. Il contient aussi du calcium et du magnésium.
 
Les haricots rouges font également partis de ces ingrédients que l'on retrouvait souvent à la table de mes grand-parents.
 
Je pense que tous les antillais de mon instagram seront capables de deviner le prochain post, je ne pouvais pas faire une serie sur les plats de mes grand-méres sans ce plat.

Avez-vous devinez lequel?

•SamKanKook Lab: Didiko - Salad konkonb é mori•
🇬🇧 [🇨🇵👇🏾]
•Crunchy "vegetarian chili"biscuit 
•Chive-cucumber sorbet 
•Grilled salted fish chiquetaille 

My inspiration:
"Didiko" is the word for breakfast in creole and back home it was not pastries, chocolate or bacon and scrambled eggs.
Cucumber and salt fish salad was one of the didiko granma use to prepare to granpa. 

My grandma cucumber salad was always very fresh, the salted fish grilled, a well balanced seasonning and a bit of 🌶 

🇨🇵
• Biscuit croquant au "piment végétarien"
• Sorbet ciboulette-concombre
• Chiquetaille de poisson salé grillé 

Mon inspiration:

"Didiko" est le mot pour petit-déjeuner en créole. Là-bas ce ne sont pas des pâtisseries, du chocolat, du bacon et des oeufs brouillés.
L'un des didiko que ma grand-mère  préparait pour mon grand-père etait de la salade de concombre et du chiquetaille de morue relevé. 

La salade de concombre de grand-mère était toujours très fraîche, la morue grillée au charbon, avec un assaisonnement bien équilibré et un peu de 🌶

• Ingredient focus: Chives • 🇬🇧 Chives • Ingredient focus: Chives • 

🇬🇧 Chives are a green vegetable with a mild onion-like flavor. Like garlic, onions or leeks they are from the Allium genus. 

Chives are a nutrient-dense food. This means that they are low in calories but high in beneficial nutrients, including vitamins (such as vitamin C, vitamin B-6), minerals, and antioxidants. 

That said, I still think that I might have put a bit too much. 

🇨🇵 La ciboulette est une plante aromatique avec une saveur douce d'oignon.  Comme l'ail, les oignons ou les poireaux, elle est du genre Allium. 

C'est un aliment faible en calories mais riche en nutriments bénéfiques tels que les vitamines C et B-6, des minéraux et des antioxydants. 

Cela dit, je pense que j'en ai trop mis sur les plats de cette série 😅

🇬🇧[ 🇨🇵 voir en commentaires] 

Did you know that cucumber is actually a fruit? 

They are high in beneficial nutrients and antioxidants, low in calories, they also contain a good amount of water and soluble fiber. 

I think it is fair to say that I used to have some at least once a week. Either at my parents table or at granma's. My father used to love it.

The next post and the next series are a humble hommage to granms' dishes that I reimagined. 

We are going back to basic, with a 😉 to my first supper club menu. 

Will you be able to guess the next dish?

I chose a few months ago, without a word, to reduce our presence on the social networks, to take the time to enjoy the present moment and to take time with those I love in order to GET BACK to you. 

I am really grateful for your support, your messages, your patience... I really needed to take a step back and make sure that this project, I should say this dream, and the milestones I had set for us still remain coherent in view of the particular circumstances we are living. 

We've had a lot of discussions with the team and we hope not to be away for so long anymore. 

I'm really looking forward to sharing with you the fruits of our reflections, brainstorming, days of testing the same recipe dozens of times,... 

Watch the space...
