Hello dear, today we’re food bound as we consider 5 of the most common foods found in Africa. Feel free to share with us more dishes if we omitted some.
What makes our motherland so unique is the wonderfully diverse cultures and traditions. When it comes to food in particular, the continent boasts a very wide variety of cuisines and delicacies spread across our various societies.
While the ingredients are relatively similar, the diversity of African cuisine largely lies in the style and technique of preparation. Due to their wide availability, most of these foods have become the backbone of meal times for most African families.
