Rice and Beans is a traditional food from Honduras and is the most popular food in the country, because it is a meal with simple ingredients and is easy to make. The ingredients are rice and beans, but it can be accompanied with meat if you like.
Rice and Beans connects with my identity because it is my favorite food, and it is simple but delicious.
In my family, Rice and Beans has been eaten from generations to generations. How could you not enjoy a delicious dish of rice and beans? The dish was originally distributed throughout the Garifuna culture and eventually spread throughout the rest of Honduras.
I always remember one day when I asked my mom:“Why do we eat so much rice and beans, and why does it taste delicious?”
She said: “Because I always give it the special ingredient, which is love.”
Now that I live in New York, I eat rice and beans in any restaurant. However, it always lacks that special ingredient that my mom gave, love.
