Burén

Taíno women preparing cassava bread on a burén

Burén, also known as a budare[1] or a budali,[2] is a cooking utensil in Puerto Rican cuisine, that originated in Taino cuisine throughout the Greater Antilles. It is a thick metal plate, and similar in structure to a griddle. During the Taino period, most buréns were ceramic. It was used by the Tainos to cook over a fire.[3][4]

Background

The Tainos used it to cook cassava and breadcakes called casabe. In Jamaica, a cassava flatbread of Taino origin is called bammy.[5] They ground the cassava first, before cooking it on a burén.[6] A woodcut was made of Taino women cooking using this method.[7]

El Burén de Lula is a book about a chef using traditional cooking technique.[8] A short film features her and the burén.[9]
