Annie and Tommy graciously shared their typical Puerto Rican specialties with me.
We had roast pork, rice and peas, and pasteles. Annie made the filling for the pasteles and Tommy finished the process by adding a few special ingredients, then wrapping them in banana leaves and parchment paper. He then tied the 'packages' up with string. Just before eating he heated them in boiling water. They are untied, the parchment removed and then served in the banana leaf. They were delicious. Thank you Annie and Tommy for a special time.
