Haitian Cuisine - Haitian Bouillon: a convivial dish

Are you Haitian? You are not Haitian but you have met them closely or from afar? Have you ever visited Haïti or do you have Haitian friends? No doubt! You have already eaten broth!

Haitian broth is an emblematic dish of Haitian cuisine. This delicious broth is often prepared with a variety of meats, such as beef, pork or chicken, and is enhanced with fresh vegetables such as carrots, potatoes and celery. This mixture creates a harmony of flavors that reflects the richness of Haitian culture.


The preparation of broth (bouyon) is a true culinary art. The ingredients are carefully selected and cooked slowly to allow the flavors to fully develop.

Spices, such as thyme, garlic and chili pepper, add a touch of heat and depth to the dish. Traditionally, broth (bouyon) is served with rice or plantains, making it a complete and comforting meal.

Broth is not just a dish, it is also a symbol of conviviality and sharing. It is often prepared during special occasions or family gatherings, strengthening the bonds between members of the community.

If you feel like preparing broth one of these days, do not hesitate to ask for the recipe in the comments.

Nestled in the southeast of Haiti, Belle-Anse is a destination that fascinates with its natural beauty and rich history. This small town, still often ignored by major tourist routes, is full of treasures that deserve to be discovered. Its wild beaches, its imposing mountains and its unique historical heritage make Belle-Anse a hidden pearl, ready to seduce travelers in search of authenticity and tranquility. Belle-Anse, founded in the 18th century, still bears the traces of its past. Its history, marked by changes of names and identity, bears witness to the political and social upheavals that have given the region. From the colonial era to the birth of the Republic, each corner of the city tells a part of the history of Haiti. This rich past is combined with a vibrant cultural life, where local festivals, such as the celebration of the Patron Saint every December 10, offer an authentic glimpse into the lives of the inhabitants. The historical remains scattered throughout the city are not only a reminder of the era of colonization, but also of the struggles for independence. These witnesses of the past, combined with a calm and preserved atmosphere, make Belle-Anse a place where history and nature intertwine harmoniously. What distinguishes Belle-Anse is undoubtedly its spectacular natural environment. Ultimately, these beaches before the deserts invite you to relax.

The nearby Bay of Jacmel is a true natural bliss, promising moments of calm and escape. The city is also surrounded by majestic mountains, ideal for those who wish to explore the Haitian landscapes on foot, while discovering a unique biodiversity. While Belle-Anse’s natural resources are rich, they are also fragile, and preserving these areas remains an important issue for the future of the region.

Haiti: The Rara season in Petit-Goâve: A celebration of life, unity and resilience

As the new season of Rara looms on the horizon, certain groups such as Saint Jacques Majeur, Ratyèfè, Florida Band, Lambi Grand, and Grap Kenèp are already preparing to light up the streets of Petit-Goâve with their flamboyant costumes and their captivating melodies. For these groups, the future looks bright, promising a season full of passion and success. However, other rara bands are still hesitant about which direction to take. Despite these uncertainties, optimism reigns regarding the success of this new season for all rara groups in the commune of Petit-Goâve. Rara, anchored in the Vodou tradition, is much more than a simple artistic manifestation. It embodies the very essence of Haitian culture, highlighting questions of memory, tradition and identity. This increasingly popular form of artistic expression attracts a large audience and arouses unprecedented enthusiasm. Groups like Ratyèfè, Grap Kenèp, Florida Band and Chenn Tamaren, recognized for their ability to delight their fans, play a crucial role in the continued growth of rara in the town. The rara season traditionally begins on Dead Thursday and ends on the night of Easter Sunday or quasimodo Monday. To mark the beginning of this sacred period, groups organize opening ceremonies, honoring the spirits of the deceased in rituals steeped in spirituality. These ceremonies, often held in cemeteries or in the "Bitasyons" of groups, symbolize the deep link between the rara and Vodou traditions.
