Rabo Encendido

Another one of the most-consumed dishes in Cuba is Rabo encendido, which is why we’re including it here on our most-traditional list. Although it is said that it comes from the Iberian Peninsula, it became very popular on the Island since the arrival of the Spanish.

Because of this, our recipe has a bit of the Spanish version in it, but also mixes adaptations that Cubans have made from one generation to the next.
