Granca,
You ate something I have been wanting to eat in the DR for ages. I ate this once as a kid and have been wanting to try it for a long time. However, they tell me there is a season for this like there is for everything else. I ask in the markets and they tell me that it is not in season when I'm there.
One question: was the shell black? The one on the link above is green. The buen pan I ate had a black shell and the inside was white.
Thanks.
