Today we are in a small village to meet Musa and his family for their Eid al-Adha celebration. They are preparing a whole goat that will be fried to go with rice, and stewed to go with Senegalese style couscous. It s an honor to be here and I can t wait to share all of the delicious food with you! Welcome to a small village, not too far away from Joal Fadiout in central Senegal, West Africa. Musa and his family kindly invited us to their home for an amazing Eid al-Adha celebration. First we began with a unique breakfast porridge that was made from millet flour, kneaded into small pellets and sprinkled into hot water. The result was a delicious porridge that you eat with homemade sweet yogurt. For lunch, the family prepared two Senegalese foods, a platter of rice with fried goat, and a platter of millet couscous with tomato goat stew. For both dishes many of the same ingredients were used - tons of onions and garlic, green onions, chilies, black pepper, tomatoes. Seasonings and ingredients were pounded into a paste and the fresh goat was marinated. The rice was cooked in the oil and broth of the goat. For the couscous it was quite a unique process, steaming, then mixing with baobab sap and baobab leaves, then steaming again. The result was an almost fluffy sandy texture. The couscous with the fresh goat meat tomato stew was a highlight. So good, and cooked with so much love! It was an amazing day of village cooking Senegalese food in rural Senegal! The food and hospitality was unforgettable.

27: 50 I love how little one is getting stuck in and isn't picky! Large piece of meat.
Super lucky to be travelling the world, being exposed to all these different culture, flavours, food and eating side by side with locals. He's going to have an awesome perspective on life.

Every time I watch your vlog makes me hungry lol. I love how you ate the food you really enjoyed them. I miss my province we do the same as well if we have visitors we offer grilled liver and pork ears or intestines salad and then pandesal bread with hot chocolate.

The amount of work that goes into preparing this food is astonishing.
My mother is Ghanaian and when there is an occasion, my aunties, cousins, Grandma will be preparing food all day.
My 95 year old great Grandma was still pounding fufu back then.

My people OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH! Thanks for sharing. To prepare our food is day long activity. When the food is done, the flavor you'll never forget. I just love how Mika gets to enjoy and gets exposure to all different cultures

Ming is still holding Micah's hand. Lol super over-protective! Let that boy be free around our African brothers, he isn't 3 any more. When his hormones are prominent, he'll have an appetite like his father.

Despite the economic downturn, I'm having the best time of my life financially. Earning over 83k in the last 2months with an investment of 19, 000. Money can be made even in a bear market. Make the most of it.

Mark Wiems is a true gentleman. Love to watch his videos!
The way he and his family honor the people and their cultures is inspiring. I dont think they have a rasist bone in their bodies.

reply

Don t think it d hurt you pockets much to show up with a goat, im a fan but it does bother me you show up to these villages empty handed. Weather you already paid for a 3rd party tour or not
reply
