Barbados is full of food!
I skipped some days, because #thecoconutbaby is on vacation, but i will make it up to you by featuring the National Bajan Dessert (in my opinion), #CONKIES!
Its a sweet cornmeal based food item that is popular throughout the Caribbean. The ingredients include cornmeal, coconut, sweet potato, and pumpkin, and the mixture is cooked by steaming in banana leaves.
In Barbados, conkies were once associated with the old British colonial celebration of Guy Fawkes Day and in modern Barbados they are eaten during Independence Day celebrations on November 30.
These conkies were made by my friends mom, Mrs. Marica, and they were wonderful! Thank you ma'am
