St Maarten’s Famous Dishes
St. Maarten's food is a delightful combination of Caribbean, French, and Dutch influences, with a diverse range of flavours and textures that represent the island's rich cultural history.
Saltfish and Johnnycakes
Saltfish and johnnycakes are true representatives of St. Maarten's traditional cuisine. Saltfish is cod that has been rehydrated, cooked, and seasoned with aromatics such as onions, tomatoes, garlic, and thyme. The fish has a firm yet soft texture, and its savoury, salty flavour is complemented by the sweetness of the vegetables. Johnnycakes complement saltfish. These are deep-fried dough cakes; they are light and delicate with a slight crisp on the outside, giving an excellent contrast to the rich and savoury saltfish.
St Maarten Conch
A true Caribbean delicacy that will leave your guests with an unforgettable culinary experience. Conch is a type of shellfish that has a strong but sensitive texture that softens when slowly cooked. Conch is cooked in a rich, flavourful broth created with fresh herbs, vegetables, and spices such as garlic, thyme, onions, and peppers. The soup is flavourful and mildly spicy, with layers of heat from the peppers. The conch absorbs these intense flavours, providing a soft bite that balances the stew's fragrant, acidic base. Using vegetables such as carrots, tomatoes, and potatoes provides a subtle sweetness to complement the conch's natural brininess.
