About the dish

This hearty Trini soup is made with cow heel as the key ingredient. Everyone on the island has their own variation of the soup, so different vegetables might be added to the pot, and some people like to add dumplings, while others opt out of them, according to personal preferences. Typically, the soup contains ingredients such as onions, split peas, okra, and carrots. Before serving, cow heel soup is additionally seasoned with salt and pepper, then served hot in large bowls or plates.
