Here’s a thought exercise: If Texas was a Caribbean island, what would the local cuisine look like? Spend a day with Harvard Aninye, the chef de cuisine at Austin’s hottest Caribbean restaurant Canje. “We are authentic, we are in no way traditional. We'll serve the food that your grandmother would make if she lived in Texas.”

My only criticism is , I know for a fact that habanero is NO substitute for what scotch bonnet brings to dish . it may be difficult , but I feel , you guys have got to get some some actual scotch bonnets in play . to me who is very familiar with both , they are not similar , flavour wise . cheers , can't wait to try

  • To make the EPIS blend: Onions, Scallions, parsley, celery leaves, garlic, thyme , scotch bonnet pepper, pimento (seasoning peppers). Remove the fennel, it is not part of the traditional flavor profile of epis. Add a puree of raw black eyed peas (skin removed) to reduce the gumminess of the malanga and add a nod to Accras West African origins. Malanga = taro = choux caribe = dasheen.
