Diri ak djon djon

(Rice with black mushrooms)

Diri ak djon djon is a Haitian dish consisting of rice combined with black mushrooms. During the boiling process, these mushrooms release a natural coloring (gray to black), giving the dish its distinctive colors and flavors. Black mushrooms are native to the northern parts of the island, so diri ak djon djon is considered a regional delicacy in Haiti.
