Belizean ” Dirty Rice “

This was posted up in a grocery store in Belize. Rice is a staple in Belizean cooking and this is the easy method to preparing this dish.

Belizean Rice and Beans

This is from Just Food. I haven’t tried it yet. In Belize they use a small piece of salt pork in it and omit the salt. I think that could be very good. I have no idea how long it takes to make.

Belizean Steamed Fish

I bought a recipe book by a local women’s group on my recent trip to Belize (Silly Bug & Bittle Recipes) and this one sounds like something I would like. I’ll be making it without the green pepper, but left it in the recipe as many people probably would like it that way.

Belizean Style Habanero Sauce – Hot Sauce

I have tried many different hot sauces in my life, with different level of heat. My all time favorite is Marie Sharp’s. Nothing can beat the combination of heat and flavor. My wife was born in Belize and she introduced me to Marie Sharp and she gave us a tour of her factory outside Dangriga, Belize. When we visit Belize we always bring a ton of her sauces back. However, it can be hard to find hear in the states at a reasonable price, so I use this recipe. It is close enough to hers to satisfy the craving. I like to add some papaya to change it up a little. I have even added a little whiskey to it before. Tasted great.
