After the Revolutionary War, many British Loyalists, who were no longer welcome in America, packed up their belongings, including their slaves, and sailed to Exuma, an island in the Bahamas, to start plantations there. Unable to farm on a tropical island where nothing useful would grow, the plantation owners returned to England, leaving the land to their slaves. The descendants of these slaves have kept their ancestors’ rich culture alive on the island. Chef Walter introduces us to the recipes of Exuma: Conch Salad, Conch Fritters, Fish Fry and a Guava Duff.
