From Library Journal
Jackson, who grew up in Nigeria, now lives in New England, where she often cooks the foods she remembers from her childhood. Here are 100 recipes for her favorite West African dishes, from Small Chop (snacks and street food) and Cool Drinks to Miya (meat, fish, or vegetable sauces/stews) to Desserts. There is a separate section on hot peppers (a staple ingredient), a Glossary of Tropical Foods, and a source guide (though most of the recipes do not call for hard-to-find ingredients). The photographs of West African people and scenes are interesting but those of the food somewhat amateurish. With the Mediterranean craze, there have been a number of cookbooks on Moroccan and other North African food, but this is one of a handful to explore another part of the continent. Recommended.

Reader Reviews
We are Americans residing in Ghana and received this book as a gift-the recipes faithfully recreate the food we find in the markets and chop bars. Its a book we'll carry and use in all our future travels. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
