I prepared this dish for my family and freinds they all described the dish as light and fresh. I wanted to do this recipe to compare the difference between the types of fish used. In class we used smoked white fish instead of salt cod. The smokiness of the smoked white fish add a nice smoky flavor profile thatnI prefer over tje salt cod.

Menu Curried Kid Camarones Sofrito Humitas Ecuatorianas Pozole Blanco Salad of Hearts of Palm with Passion Fruit Vinaigrette The recipes that I prepared were the curried kid which had a nice balanced flavor profile and was prepared correctly for the meat had a nice moist and tender mouth feel. The second recipe that I prepared was the Tostones, Chef Alyssa stated had great technique, but waa a bit over done. I believe that if I saute they may have came out better.

Menu Buljol: Flaked Saltfish (Trinidad) Yuca Mufongo with Cilantro Aioli Sauce (Puerto Rico) Jamaican Jerk Beef Steak Arroz Mamposteao: Rice and Beans (Puerto Rico) Mojo de Amarilos: Ripe Plantain Chutney (Puerto Rico) Coo-Coo (Barbados) I was very excited to do this dish I have wanted to work with salt cod since last quarter. We did not have any salt cod ,so we substituted smoked white fish. The white fish add a a light smokiness which gave the dish a light and fresh flavor profile. My use of salt has greatly improve and it shows in the Coo Coo which had a nice balanced flavor. Because the plantains were not the correct ripeness really impacted the balance of the chutney. The chutney also need to be balanced with more acid.k
