Publishers Text

Inspired by his multicultural upbringing, professional chef Kristian Smith set out to recreate the mouthwatering flavors present in all his favorite Jamaican dishes from childhood. The result of over a decade's worth of experimenting with the best methods and ingredients needed for an authentic Caribbean experience, Roots invites cooks of all backgrounds and skill levels to bring the delectable dishes of Jamaica into their lives.

From rigging your own grill to get set up for traditional jerk grilling to crafting cocktails that pair perfectly with both meat and veggie-centric dishes, this cookbook is full of easy-to-follow recipes and invaluable instruction on how to enjoy Jamaican food anywhere in the world. Includes chapters on main dishes, sides, beverages and desserts, along with tantalizing photographs of every dish.
