I’m flying out to Madeira to join Spirit of Discovery as a guest culinary lecturer for the next week, making the Atlantic crossing to Barbados. I’m hosting a series of immersive lectures that build a comprehensive picture of Caribbean cuisine. They’ll unravel a dense and traumatic history of international influences, trace culinary relics, techniques and traditions that are visible in Caribbean cuisine today and most importantly, identify lessons we can learn for the future of food security, civilisation and preserving tradition. I’ll share as much as I can along the way. Anchor’s up! ⚓️
