About Bahamian Conch Salad

JoEllen Strump records this traditional Bahamian conch salad as a recipe supplied by Joe's conch stand in Bimini. Fresh minced conch is combined with onion, tomato and green pepper in a simple citrus dressing.

Lime juice and garlic salt season the finely chopped mixture. Lemon juice and a chopped hot pepper are offered additions, with habanero providing one of the named pepper options.

The salad is combined and refrigerated, then served with hot sauce alongside. Its chopped seafood and vegetables make the ingredients visible throughout the bowl.
