Kubanisches Sandwich (Cubano)
A Cuban sandwich layers citrus-marinated mojo roast pork, sweet ham, Swiss cheese, yellow mustard, and dill pickles inside crisp Cuban bread, then presses the whole thing flat until the crust shatters and the melted cheese turns to glue. The contrast of tangy pork, salty ham, sharp mustard, and cool pickle is the entire point, and pressing it under a weight gives you that classic griddled crunch with no special equipment.

Schwarze Bohnen mit Reis
Cuban-style black beans and rice: creamy, garlicky beans simmered with a slow-cooked onion and green pepper sofrito, spooned over fluffy long-grain white rice. Using undrained canned beans plus a splash of vinegar and a pinch of sugar builds the glossy, deeply savory pot liquor Cuban cooks prize, without hours of simmering. Mashing a few spoonfuls of beans at the end thickens the sauce so it clings to every grain.

Klassischer Mojito
Cuba's most famous highball: white rum, fresh lime, mint, sugar, and a splash of soda over plenty of ice. Pressing the mint gently with sugar and lime juice releases its cooling oils without tearing the leaves into bitterness, so every sip tastes bright and clean rather than grassy. It takes ten minutes, no cooking, and rewards you with a drink that is fizzy, tart, and just sweet enough.
