bouyon soup
St. Lucia · Latin America

Bouyon is a Saint Lucian soup or stew made with meat and vegetables. Pigtails, carrots, onions, green peppers and starchy provisions appear in the description published by the island’s Buccan restaurant. Bouyon belongs to everyday Saint Lucian cooking alongside green fig and saltfish and accras.[1][2]
It is also prepared at seaside cookouts, where families gather around broth cooked in clay pots. Chef O’Nell Daly’s version combines pigtail broth, lentils, spinach, green plantain and potatoes.[2][3]
