  • Beans and Rice – a Staple of Traditional Diets
    Beans and Rice – A Staple of Traditional Diets Whether it’s Hoppin’ John or Red Beans and Rice, beans and rice have been a staple pairing for thousands of years throughout African and Latino history. In Central America the bean/rice team is sometimes called matrimonio (“the marriage”). And beans and rice are interchangeable with peas and rice in the English-speaking Caribbean because of frequent use of pigeon peas and other field peas there. Always referred to as “rice and peas” (in that order) in Jamaica, the combination makes up the country’s unofficial national dish called “The Coat of Arms.” In dishes throughout the Caribbean and South America, beans and rice are often served separately on the plate. In Africa and in some regional dishes, the beans and rice are usually cooked together in the same pot. Try it both ways to add variety to your meals. RICE Rice is an essential element of almost every African and Latin American meal. It’s usually used as an accompaniment to the other, more flavorful elements and is often served by itself or with beans. Spanish settlers and Africans brought over by the slave trade helped disseminate and popularize rice. In fact, rice is more popular in countries like Brazil and the Hispanic Caribbean, where there are heavier influences from Spanish and African populations. There are thousands of different types of rice and the preferred type depends on the country and dish. Dishes like paella are made with medium- grain rice, but long-grain rice is eaten on a more daily basis.
