From Publishers Weekly
A smattering of anthropology, linguistics, culture, economics, mores and folkways accompanies lively and varied recipes culled from across the continent in this attractive African cookbook. Many dishes are familiar versions of Southern and Cajun-Creole cuisine, but enough lie sufficiently off the well-beaten path to offer a sense of freshness and discovery. Where necessary, American substitutes for African ingredients and implements are provided. Recipes for chicken curry, fish soup or pickled green beans are not likely to quicken many American pulses, but Moroccan lamb sauced with butter, onions and raisins, Burkina Fasoan fish cooked with okra, hot peppers and sweet potato greens, Ghanian palm-nut soup, Tanzanian mango snow and Liberian plantain gingerbread make for enticing departures from daily fare. The cookbook was originally published privately by the Africa News, an educational news agency based in North Carolina. Illustrations.

Reader Reviews
If only for one recipe, Doro Wat (my spelling may be off, I loaned out my copy and have never seen it again!) Chicken Stew, it is AMAZING!!!! Don't be put off by the ingredients (lots of cayenne pepper!) And making the aromatic Berbere, and Ghee yourself is a bit time consuming, but worth the experience and effort. (You can use your old coffee grinder) I made Doro Wat chicken for a party, after having some at a food festival and prying the recipe source from the chef, and it was the most well received dish I EVER served,(to a room of critics!) and I'm a great cook! Plus there are loads of other authentic African recipes,(from various countries) a cusine that gets over-looked too often!
