Haitian cuisine is a vibrant and flavorful culinary tradition that reflects the country's history, culture, and agricultural abundance. Here are some key aspects of Haitian food:

​

Rice and Beans: Like many Caribbean cuisines, rice and beans are a staple in Haitian meals. The combination is often cooked with spices and sometimes coconut milk, providing a hearty and filling accompaniment to main dishes.

 

Pikliz: This spicy condiment is a hallmark of Haitian cuisine. It consists of pickled vegetables (usually cabbage, carrots, and peppers) marinated in vinegar and spices, adding a tangy and spicy kick to many dishes.

​

Fritay: Haitian fritay is a popular street food consisting of fried meat (such as pork, chicken, or goat), plantains, and sometimes seafood. It's often served with pikliz and is a favorite snack or meal during festivals and gatherings.

 

Seafood: Given its coastal location, seafood plays a significant role in Haitian cuisine. Fish, lobster, crab, and conch are commonly used in various dishes, often grilled, fried, or stewed with local spices and herbs.
