A heap of saucy pasta with a side of fried plantains might not be the first dish that comes to mind when you’re packing for a beach trip. To some, seaside sustenance should be portable and light, and it certainly shouldn’t require utensils. But for me, watching my aunts plop down thick, slick strands of spaghetti onto styrofoam plates is a beach meal swimming with tradition.

Dominican spaghetti is a hearty, lush dish consisting of pasta tangled up with yellow and green peppers, onions, olives, capers, and chunks of meat that gets drowned in a creamy combination of tomato sauce and evaporated milk. It’s rich and earthy, shot through with pops of salty, tangy, and sweet. The glowing orange sauce glistens in the sun as my fork dives into the plate like a lifeguard, saving bits of salami from disappearing under waves of pasta.

The dish is always accompanied by white rice or tostones or packed between pan de agua and made into a sandwich. Or all three. It’s more conducive to certain beach day activities than others—napping, say, more so than catching waves. It’s also affordable and easy to prepare in large quantities when you need to feed a group.
