If you have made a firm decision to eat more greens this year then you would be happy to know where to get Kale to add to your shopping list.
Polositas, is easy to spot in its grey exterior highlighted with red details and a little on your left just before Glory Oil and a few seconds from Danquah Circle heading towards Labadi.
So here I was with one swiss chard plant. It had grown quite large and very healthy. It was such an easy vegetable to grow and needed very little attention
How many Saturday's in a year do you get food events all happening on the same day in the city of Accra? Ummm...like almost never right? But today is one of those rare glorious weekends where foodies in the city can rejoice đđŸđđŸđđŸ as the dawn ushers in three food events.
I am forever drawn to the use of traditional cooking techniques and just like the family business which bakes pork in the clay oven, this bread was also being baked in same. Thatâs not all. The dough is allowed to prove ( the resting period for dough to rise) onâŠguess whatâŠleaves. Not just any leaves but the âwaakye' leaves we all know and love. Isnât that an incredible piece of information?? I know right! Now this bread is called Baa Mli Blodo
The Mensah family has run a small-scale Domedo business for almost 100 years and I recently paid them a visit after being introduced to them by my friend Naa Akuyea. I was curious to know what their story was , more so especially after learning that they used a centuries-old traditional cooking technique to bake pork; a clay oven which we call Flornorr in Ga.
I later decided to create a soup recipe using the hardy Guinea Fowl meat using a basic English-style Chicken soup inspo. All I needed was to create stock. Where was I going to get stock? Definitely not in the store. Even if they sold canned Guinea Fowl stock I would without a doubt make my own. Much healthier that way.
I was at the Ghana Garden & Flower Show last two weeks as a vendor for Storefoundry. Now, my strategy wasnât to only pitch to prospective clients to sign up for their custom storefront but to also make some sales by selling Nm3daa. What is nm3daa, you ask?
I hadn't seen anything like it before and I doubt my hubby had either. A variety of spices packed into test-tube like bottles with the name âAfrican Spicesâ stared back at our astonished faces. We burst out laughing in delight. This was insanely beautiful. đ Just have a look at it and testify.
This dish is a vivid memory of the first time I had couscous back in Ghana with some Ivorian friends. I did my best to cook this meal exactly the way my Ivorian friends did and I am very happy it worked and tasted almost the same. Hope everyone who tries this enjoys it as much as I did.
I recently invited my friend Emelda Amoah to whom I became acquainted with during the WhatAWoman workshop sessions last year to share how toprepare Tuo Zaafi. Donât be fooled by her name, sheâs a Northerner from the Frafra part of Northern Ghana. When she told me TZ is a common meal eaten in her home I just had to invite her to show how itâs done.
