Is Ghanaian food the best food in Africa?

[Luke Cage]

One of the few meals I taught myself to cook.

might have to order the Masala off amazon

Ethiopian food and Morrocan food might be better but I lean towards spicier foods on my palate.

 

[Ya?]

You can’t go wrong with West African foods. Regardless of country.

In fact we should have African food competitions that would be nice to see or Africa vs the diaspora.

Damn I’d like to organize that.

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.

Senegalese jollof is pure crack, I’m gelling you the first time I had it, I had to ask the lady preparing the food to make me an extra plate of just jollof to take home

Had me on my Ismael Lo shyt singing about some woman named Sophia who I don’t even know who tf she is

 

[UberEatsDriver]

Hell no


Ghanian and Nigerian food is turrible

But they got the numbers in america so of course the bias will lean to them



Crown goes to Liberia and Senegal

I’ve never had west African food in my life but from an eye Point of view Senegalese food looks very good.

Might stop at a spot on 116th

West Africans (specifically Anglophone West African) have stronger soft power than probably any sub-Saharan Africans on the continent or are probably the most represented group of Africans as a whole in the US. With that said, HELL NO Ghanaian is not the best food. Tanzanian Food practically surpasses any African cuisine out there because of the historical fusion of things in that part of the world of cultures.

The best african food by far is African American

Plus Cajun counts too

Those rice dishes that the Cajuns claim are actually from Black people.

Gullah Red Rice:

Gullah Red Rice with Shrimp

Hopin John

Gumbo

Jambalaya

Eat spanish rice Nigerian and Ghanian brehs

The Liberian one looks the most like paella though

Nigerian food is undefeated. I don't like oily food so Ghanaian food generally doesn't appeal to me.

African cant be something it predates

You labelled the Nigerian and Ghanaian versions as "Spanish rice" but the only thing that resembled Spanish rice was the liberian one. Nigerians already have fried rice if we want to eat rice with prawns; we don't need to put all of that in our jollof.

As a fellow Ghanaian, I am biased to say my own is the best. But I'm gonna give an honest answer.

I'm gonna have to give it to the Senegalese, their food is very unique and very tasty after I went into one of their high end joints in Harlem last year. Y'all need to try their chicken yassa with couscous

Their pastries are lit too

But Naija food tho

 

[klientel]

Can someone explain what some of this stuff is....

I can't lie, it all looks like slop to me. But I'm ignorant on different culture's food so most of the time I have no idea what Im looking at.

 

[AB Ziggy]

Nope Nigerian

Of course you would say that, you desire to be Nigerian so hard from your past threads thanks to your ex fiance


Only their Suya meat is nice. But the rest of their cuisine is

 

[Koba St]

Only your Suya meat is nice.
