    Food for thought:

    Finally, my husband in recent years (after visiting DR) has started eating Dominican foods but I have forgotten so much and it’s frustrating because my menu is so limited at this time and I feel I’ve lost that “Dominican” touch. I hope I gain it back with the recipes on this site. — tunty84 from US
