Modern Jamaican Cuisine

While working at sea, in foreign countries, or in his Jamaican homeland, Chef Christopher Golding came to understand the depth of his grandmother's saying, "Cooking is sharing love." In a debut cookbook, Golding blends quintessential Jamaican cuisines with a modern twist in tantalizing recipes that capture the essence of the lessons, techniques, and methodologies of his grandmother and translate them into accessible dishes that are still reminiscent of the island's heritage and bounty. His collection includes recipes for lime-honey marinade and Sugar Mill spice rub, rum bearnaise sauce and jackfruit chutney, beetroot dip and blackened tuna and scallop ceviche, braised oxtail confit and pumpkin soup, annatto poached snapper fillet and grilled lobster tail, sous-vide Cornish hen with lemongrass and ginger, Josper-grilled jerk chicken with green-lipped mussels, and yam risotto and breadfruit pancake. Modern Jamaican Cuisine shares recipes from an executive chef that exquisitely blend classic Jamaican cuisine with a contemporary touch.
