Soup Joumou

Soup Joumou, an iconic Haitian dish, is much more than just a soup. It is a symbol of resilience, freedom and celebration. Every year on January 1, Haitian families gather around this feast to commemorate Haiti’s independence and savor the rich and complex flavors of this delicious dish. Soup Joumou has a history deeply rooted in the struggle for freedom. It dates back to the time of the Haitian Revolution, when slaves rebelled against their oppressors and finally gained independence on January 1, 1804. At the time, squash soup, or "joumou" in Haitian Creole, was a dish forbidden to slaves. However, once free, they adopted this soup as a symbol of their new freedom. Soup Joumou is a complex concoction of flavors, requiring a variety of carefully selected ingredients. Key elements include joumou squash, beef or chicken, vegetables such as cabbage, carrot, turnip and leek, and spices such as thyme and chili pepper. This combination of ingredients creates a symphony of flavors that tempts the taste buds. Preparing Soup Joumou is a ceremony in itself. The vegetables are carefully cut, the meat is marinated and the spices are mixed with love. The joumou squash is peeled, cut into pieces and cooked until a velvety consistency. Everything is then combined in a large pot, simmering slowly to allow the flavors to blend together harmoniously. Soup Joumou is much more than just a dish; he embodies the strength and resilience of the Haitian people. Each spoonful of this delicious soup is a celebration of Haitian independence and a reminder of the courageous struggle that led to its achievement.
