News Americas, MIAMI, FL, Dec. 31, 2020:  This weekend’s recipe is native to Haiti and is a famous mildly spicy soup. Haitian tradition holds that the soup was enjoyed by the slave masters on the former French colony, while the Haitian slaves were forbidden it. Consequently, Soup Joumou is traditionally consumed on New Year’s Day, (January 1st), as a historical tribute to Haitian independence in 1804.
