Grenadian Recipes

Grenadian cuisine earns the island its nickname "Spice Isle" through prolific use of nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, and mace grown locally. Oil down, a one-pot dish of breadfruit, salted meat, callaloo, and coconut milk seasoned with turmeric, is the national dish and communal feast. Lambi (conch) in creole sauce, crab back (stuffed crab shell), and cocoa tea are beloved. Fresh seafood, tropical fruits, and the world's finest nutmeg flavor everything from stews to rum punches.
