Do you think that a return to traditional Cuban cooking is needed at this time? <\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s not a question of returning. We are always overusing the term return. I think that what we need to do is get it going. And it is the mission of professionals who are doing the cooking today, the artists who are making cuisine today at their little space by the stove; we should always remember that. It is a crime against nature to want to replicate the cooking of another country and forget about your own. We should never forget our roots. Do you think that a return to traditional Cuban cooking is needed at this time?<\/p>\n

Squid in red wine<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n

olive oil \/ 25 ml<\/p>\n

clean squid \/ 200gr<\/p>\n

diced onion \/ 1<\/p>\n

diced green pepper \/ 1<\/p>\n

large cloves of garlic, sliced \/ 5<\/p>\n

honey \/ 15ml<\/p>\n

paprika \/ 5g<\/p>\n

tomato paste \/ 15 gr<\/p>\n

red wine \/ 30ml<\/p>\n

Salt and pepper to taste<\/p>\n

Preparation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cut the squid into rings. Sprinkle it with paprika, salt and pepper. In a frying pan, heat the oil well and add squid rings, garlic, onion and green pepper. Fry lightly for a few minutes and add tomato paste. Remove and add honey little by little. Add wine and let it absorb a little bit. Add more salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot with vegetables.<\/p>\n
