Celebrate Flavor: Simply Trini Cooking is Finally Here!
The moment has finally arrived—the book is out! As we wrap up the year 2019, this post marks a celebratory tone, highlighting the release of the Simply Trini Cooking cookbook. With this publication, you can now experience the vibrant and rich flavors of Trini cooking like never before. The journey to bring this cookbook to life has been a true labor of love, filled with numerous trials and challenges along the way. Even after the book’s release, we encountered some hurdles; however, we persevered and found solutions to each issue that arose. Here’s to a bright culinary future!
This week, we were thrilled to receive a heavy box filled with our newly published cookbooks, marking a dream come true for us. Holding the finished product in our hands was an exhilarating experience—we could hardly believe it! The books turned out to be quite thick, a pleasant surprise that added to our excitement. Interestingly, one of my relatives had already purchased a copy on Amazon as a gift for someone else, not expecting the book to be so large. Impressed by the quality, he recently ordered two more copies. We genuinely appreciate his support, which means the world to us.
Not everyone shares the same perspective when it comes to the value of my book. We’ve already received two comments expressing the opinion that it is too expensive. However, after dedicating 11 years of hard work to creating this collection, I believe it’s essential to value my effort and expertise appropriately. I invite you to judge for yourself when you purchase the book—its worth will become evident. As the thousands of visitors to the site can attest, the recipes speak for themselves, showcasing the culmination of my years of dedication. Plus, there’s something special about having these recipes in print.
The Simply Trini Cooking cookbook, a culinary treasure for fans of Trinidadian cuisine, is currently only available through Amazon and directly from me, which means it is not stocked in any local bookstores. To make this beloved cookbook more accessible to Trinbagonians, I am excited to announce that we will be fulfilling orders for fans in Trinidad and Tobago at a more affordable price. This initiative allows me to connect with my fellow countrymen and women while offering them an opportunity to enjoy the flavors of home. For those interested, please feel free to contact me for an autographed copy—it’s my special gift to you!
The Cookbook: A Peep Inside
We had hoped to publish our book locally, but the costs proved to be prohibitively expensive for us. Faced with this challenge, we turned to Amazon as our publishing platform. Their efficiency and expertise in the publishing process made it an appealing choice, allowing us to achieve our goals without a significant financial burden. By opting for Amazon, we not only streamlined the publishing process but also ensured that we could bring our work to readers without an excessive cash outlay on my part. Ultimately, I am grateful for this decision, as it allowed us to share our book more easily and effectively.
The “Simply Trini Cooking” cookbook is designed with both aesthetics and functionality in mind. Its excellent spine ensures durability, while the smooth, glossy, soft cover adds a touch of elegance. One of the standout features is how easily the book opens and lays flat, a quality that is essential for any cook navigating a busy kitchen. I specifically considered this aspect during the design process, as I wanted readers to comfortably follow the many delicious recipes without the frustration of pages flipping on their own. Choosing Amazon’s print-on-demand service was a decision I am grateful for, as it has proven to be top-notch.
An Amazing Simply Trini Cooking Cookbook
The book is a true heavyweight, tipping the scales at just under three pounds and encompassing 416 pages brimming with our tried and true recipes. Each page is meticulously crafted, leaving minimal space for lengthy discussions or elaborate narratives—just enough room for the delicious recipes and enticing photographs that bring them to life. This design choice emphasizes a straightforward philosophy: less talk, more recipes. Moreover, the practicality of this cookbook cannot be overstated; it serves as a tangible alternative to the digital realm. Instead of fumbling with our phones to access recipes online, we can simply open this cookbook, making the cooking experience more enjoyable and accessible.

Thank you for all your hard work Felix! Yours was the very first Trini cooking blog I encountered 11 years ago and I’ve learnt a lot from you. I just placed my order from Belgium and I can’t wait to get my hands on my copy!
Thank you Michelle for all the love and support all the way from Trinidad and Tobago. Please leave a nice review on Amazon. I would appreciate that very much.
I want to say that I’m glad that you have done this. I have used your recipes and they never fail and make use of foods that we find easily in the Caribbean.
I’ll be buying one of your books in due course for sure!
Thank you Amanda. As I’ve said before, the recipes speak for themselves.
I am going to buy one for myself and about 5 for relatives.
Is it available in book stores in Trinidad
