Utensils. One of the scars of colonization . :mjcry:

Also we use boiled and pounded breadfruit instead of pounded yam. What you saw in the previous pic was breadfruit pounded

Eh, pounded yam is more of a Nigerian thing, we Ghanaians use plantain instead to make fufu. It can be made up of different materials depending on each culture as long as the product looks and feels the same.

In your case, you Haitians have made your version using breadfruit. You guys should be proud to have kept that tradition after slavery.

Senegal by a mile. In fact the main dish that Nigerian and Ghanian people claim they are best at (Jollof Rice) is actually from the Jollof (Wolof) tribe in Senegal.

Sierra Leone is second.
Senegal made it a hot name, we made it a hot dish.:pachaha:
:salute: to Senegal, they still have the Okra game on lock tho. The last time I went to Harlem:ohlawd:

One thing i have noticed is that I don’t see many african takeout or sit down restaurants. In DC, where I live, Ethiopian is almost on par with sushi, Pho, or any other dining out cuisine IE. People go out once a week and might have Italian one week, ethiopian the next. However, these are all Mom and pops enterprises. We are still years away from a Panda Express, chipotle, etc
It must be because it takes a long ass time to cook in general :russ:

You didn’t name the culture of the food you posted. L

This must be South African/Southern African. That whole region Zimbabwe, South Africa, Botswana, Zambia eat the same type food

Mostly Mealie Meal (Pap) and Beef, very nice but they aint in the same league with them West Africans!

What does ugali taste like?
That's just another word for pap.
Ethiopian is ok. Although I can eat it, not a fan of the soury-ness of injera.
Ethiopian food is fine but I also don't get the hype with injera. Its like having light sour pancakes for lunch. :feedme:I need more thickness breh!
We have much heavier flatbread.

West African food is GOAT, be it Ghana or Sierra Leone. Palm Oil makes all the difference, that shyt is crack. I once drove over an hour to New Brunswick, NJ just to get some.
