What's for dinner?

We've been getting lots of questions about what types of foods we'll be eating, and have been giving some vague responses.  So here's some more tidbits of info that you can sink your teeth into...

The most common food [in our area] consists of grains such as sorghum, millet, rice, or maize, which are ground into flour for a variety of different kinds of dishes. Usually, breakfast consists of cakes made from ground beans which are then fried or wheat flour soaked for a day then fried and served with sugar. Both of these cakes can be served with porridge and sugar. Lunch or dinner are usually served as heavy porridge with soup and stew. The soup and stew are usually prepared with ground or chopped tomatoes, onions, and a local pepper sauce. While preparing the soup, most of the times spices and other vegetables such as spinach, pumpkin, or okra are added to the soup. The stew is prepared with meat, which can include goat or cow meat but not pork due to religious restrictions. Beans, peanuts, and milk are also served as a complementary protein diet.

A jerky-like delicacy - hopefully there are no Sasquatches around!

To that we will learn to say, bon appetite!
