Saint Cooks

Two ‘Saints’ who are celebrating the culture of St Helena Island through its food. We're cooking food, sharing recipes, and generally posting about the most delicious food in the world!

We love Saint food!  The smell of a pot of Plo, or the sweet taste of a coconut finger.  Food has the power to transport you to happy memories.  Saints learn from each other how to cook the delicious dishes of their island community, ‘cause on St Helena we believe in feeding you until you are fill - then just a little bit more.  But no recipe is final, there is no absolute version.  Everyone has their own specific way of cooking their favourites.  Whether it is adding a secret ingredient that your Mum used, or twigging the ingredients as they became available.  St Helena has special and unique food.
