Seafood Casserole
What is conch? Seafood is the staple of the Bahamian diet.
Conch (pronounced "konk"😉 is a large type of ocean mollusk
that has firm, white, peach-fringed meat. Fresh, uncooked
conch is delicious, the conch meat is scored with a knife,
lime juice and spices are sprinkled over the meat. It can
also be deep-fried (called "cracked conch"😉, steamed, added
to soups, salads and stews or made into conch chowder and
conch fritters.
