Hechas al burén

Burén, also known as a budare or a budali, is a cooking utensil in Puerto Rican cuisine that originated in Taino cuisine. It is a thick metal plate, and similar in structure to a griddle. During the Taino period, most burén were ceramic. It was used by the Taino to cook over a fire.

Background

The Taino used it to cook cassava and breadcakes. They ground the casava first, before cooking the casava on a burén. A woodcut was made of Taino women cooking using this method.

El Burén de Lula is a book about a chef using traditional cooking technique. A short film features her and the burén.
