PUERTO RICO: Pasteles
This Caribbean bundle of Christmas deliciousness is labor-intensive and only served during the fiestas. The Puerto Rican pastel has dough made of green plantains and a filling of pork, garbanzos, raisins and olives. It's then wrapped in banana leaves before being boiled in salted water. Well worth the wait!
