This is the full recipe collection: Belizean home cooking first, and the wider Caribbean and Central American kitchens it sits inside.
The Belizean core is stew chicken, rice and beans, fry jacks, panades, hudut and escabeche, built on recado, coconut milk, fresh seafood and corn.
Around it are the regional kitchens that share those ingredients and cook them differently: Jamaican jerk and brown stew, Puerto Rican pernil and mofongo, Cuban ropa vieja, Salvadoran pupusas, Guatemalan pepian and Haitian griot.
