Existe tanta diferencia entre las cabezas como entre los paladares.

RECIPE: Coconut drops or “Coquitos” (from Paladares by Anya von Bremzen, with photography by Megan Fawn Schlow)
Coquitos are Cuba’s answer to macaroons: chewy, sweet balls rolled in cooked, shredded coconut and either left to dry for a bit or scooped right away with a melon baller into paper cups as a Christmas sweet or a popular street treat. Variations abound—coquitos blancos, plump with white shredded coconut; coquitos melcochados, toasty with caramelized coco; coquitos con leche, made with sweet milk. Package them in colorful mini baking cups to give as a holiday gift or bring to a party.
Makes 24 balls
1 (14 ounce / 420-ml) can sweetened condensed milk
1 pound (455 g) finely grated unsweetened coconut
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
In a mixing bowl, stir together the condensed milk, coconut, and vanilla until well combined. The mixture should be dense enough to hold a ball when you roll one in your hands.
Using a melon baller and your hands, scoop up the coconut mixture and roll it into twenty-four 2-inch (5 cm) balls. Bake on one large or two smaller baking sheets until light golden brown, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
The first book to tell the mesmerizing story of the new Cuban cuisine. A narrative and visual feast from James Beard Award–winning writer Anya von Bremzen and photographer Megan Fawn Schlow—with more than 100 vibrant recipes.
Cuba is experiencing a cultural and culinary renaissance—and its paladares, the private restaurants, are leading the way. Paladares is a fascinating culinary and visual journey through the new Cuba. Born in Soviet Russia in the era of shortages, award-winning writer Anya von Bremzen brings a unique perspective to the stories that Cuba’s chefs, restaurateurs, farmers, and food historians share with her. She eavesdrops on passionate arguments about black beans and tamales; pries Daiquirí secrets from legendary El Floridita (Hemingway’s watering hole); guides us to vibrant agros (markets) and visionary organic farms. We learn of Fidel’s obsession with cows, milk, and ice cream. We hear wrenching memories of the Período Especial, the years of terrible privation after Soviet aid vanished. We meet colorful expats who fell for Cuba and ended up opening restaurants—and local hipsters who obsess over global culture gleaned solely from foreign movies and magazines. Fawn Schlow’s evocative photographs frame it all with the ramshackle glamour of old Havana, Cuba’s stunning countryside, dishes that are earthy and innovative, and Cuba’s incredible people.
The more than 100 recipes in Paladares are as intriguing as the characters behind them. Traditional Cuban bean pots, saucy picadillo, crunchy fritters, soulful tamales, Roast Chicken Stuffed with Black Beans and Rice—and a Gulf Stream of cocktails—are all featured here. But the recipes also reflect the current aspiration of Cuban cooks to finally catch up with the world through dishes such as Pumpkin Soup with Blue Cheese, Ceviche with Mango and Black-Eyed Peas, or Coffee-Rubbed Pork. Cuba’s culinary culture is being reborn, and Paladares joyously savors this revolution.

RECIPE: Pumpkin and Spinach with Saffron (from Paladares by Anya von Bremzen; photography by Megan Fawn Schlow)
Puré de Calabazas y Espinacas con Azafrán
Alexis Alvarez Armas is also the talent behind this lovely, unusual side dish. It was a big hit on the menu of his short-lived paladar in the city of Trinidad. Alexis layers saffron-scented pumpkin puree and spinach into cups and unmolds them onto dinner plates for a striking effect. Here, we use a baking dish, but feel free to improvise. He also suggests serving the dish with a warm sour orange mojo to heighten the flavors. Serve with a festive main course such as Coffee-Rubbed Pork or Trout with Black Bean Sauce, both from Alexis.
Serves 8
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
¼ cup (35 g) finely chopped onion
4 cups (80 g) loosely packed baby spinach
3 pounds (1.4 kg) pumpkin, peeled, seeded, and cut into cubes
3 tablespoons toasted hulled pumpkin seeds
¼ cup (30 g) all-purpose flour
Salt and pepper
¼ teaspoon saffron threads
In a skillet over medium-high heat, combine the olive oil, chopped garlic, and onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened. Add the spinach and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until wilted and the liquid has cooked out.
Bring a pot with 5 cups of water to a boil over medium heat. Add the pumpkin and cook until tender, 20 to 30 minutes, or until easily pierced by a fork. Drain the water and set the pumpkin aside to cool.
In a blender or food processor, combine the pumpkin cubes with the pumpkin seeds and flour, season with salt and pepper, and puree on high speed for 2 minutes, or until smooth.
Spread half of the pumpkin puree in the bottom of a round 1-quart (1-L) baking dish. Cover with a layer of the spinach mixture and top with the rest of the pumpkin puree. Sprinkle with the saffron and serve.
