Soup Joumou is a deeply symbolic and traditional dish in Haitian culture. Originating during Haiti’s fight for independence, it was once a delicacy reserved exclusively for French colonists, symbolizing oppression and inequality. Following Haiti’s successful revolution in 1804, enslaved Africans, now free, claimed this soup as a symbol of their liberation and resilience.
Made with pumpkin, beef, vegetables, and spices, Soup Joumou is traditionally enjoyed on January 1st, Haiti’s Independence Day, celebrating freedom and unity. Its significance has grown so much that in 2021, UNESCO recognized it as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
