Specialities to seek out on a visit to Jersey

Although Jersey is something of a melting pot of cultures, you will find that there are one or two local specialities that you may want to try during your holiday on the island.

Most of the restaurants you encounter will make use of local produce to create their dishes, so you will certainly get a flavour of the isle wherever you eat – and expect Jersey royal potatoes to feature somewhere!

One speciality that you should try to find if you enjoy sampling new dishes is black butter. This unusual delicacy is made from cider, which is reduced down over many hours before apples, sugar, lemon, liquorice and spices are added to the mixture. Another recipe you may come across is Jersey's bean crock, which sees dried beans soaked overnight before being cooked up with onions, herbs and pigs' trotters.

If you enjoy your seafood and like trying new things then you may want to find a restaurant serving conger eel soup. This traditional Jersey meal is usually garnished with marigold petals.
