There's nothing quite like the food of the islands, and tonight Chef Emeril is making a traditional Puerto Rican meal to remember. He's joined by Zena, a travel writer whose fond memories of Puerto Rico inspire her at her desk, but not in the kitchen. Together, they'll enjoy a fantastic and flavorful Seafood Ceviche and then make an authentic Pork Mojo with Black Beans, Tostones and Coconut Rice. And no trip to the Caribbean would be complete without a refreshing Orange-Basil Mojito. Salud!

TIPS:

  • Tight on time? You can also use canned black beans in place of dried. Just be sure to drain and rinse them well.
  • Chicharrones can be purchased already prepared at your local Latin market.
