Cassava, otherwise known as manioc, mandioc, or yuca in Peru is a carbohydrate root food that has high fiber content, and the leaves are a valuable source of protein. It is long and ugly – looks sort of like a big fat sausage with rough outer skin. It is very important to make sure you are buying SWEET cassava, not bitter, because bitter cassava has leaves that contain cyanide, and we don’t want anybody out there meeting their end by the hands of a root, do we?
Anyway, since cassava is pretty bland by itself, its best served with a dipping sauce rich in flavor, which is why I’m throwing in my secret recipe for Cuban Mojo on the site as well. Just follow the link below if you’re feeling inspired. Enjoy and good luck!

In the Caribbean Islands, the Plantain is one of the most popular things to cook with. There are a number of dishes you can use them for, but here is a really popular one that is not only vegan, but delicious as well! I serve this all the time as an appetizer, finger foods, etc…everyone loves it! Make sure your plantains are very ripe, but still firm – this is very important in this recipe! This dish can be served hot or cold, and goes great with the Mojo dipping sauce!
