Part 3/7:
The exploration of Easter food traditions takes a delightful turn with the Jamaican community, where Betina shares her adaptation of the hot cross bun. Her Jamaican variant introduces a unique combination of stout and bold spices, often served with a slice of cheese.

Betina's authentic recipes reflect the deeper cultural significance of food and togetherness during the Easter season.
