About

The Akan proverb "The good soup comes from the good earth" elegantly sums up the Ghana's tradition of cooking with seasonal, local ingredients. With an emphasis on locally caught fish and seafood, vegetables, fruits, and legumes, Ghana's cuisine is vibrant, healthful, and eminently appealing. Limited access to wheat and dairy allows for a variety of gluten-free, lactose-free, and vegan options using starches such as plantains, cassava, taro, sweet potatoes and millet, plus creamy nut-based soups and sauces. With over 140 recipes The Ghana Cookbook represents the nation's different regions, including favorites like Fufu, Jollof Rice, Kofi Brokeman, Yele Kakro, Fante and Ga Kenkey, Ashanti Chicken, Waakye, Shito sauce, Kontomire Stew, Bissap/Hibiscus Punch, and many more.

Reviews

"Fran Osseo-Asare can be credited, for having introduced Ghanaian cuisine to many westerners with her previous publications. The Ghana Cookbook takes it up a notch thanks to this brilliant collaboration with Barbara Baëta, the high priestess of Ghana cuisine. The result is an in-depth and truly remarkable collection of authentic Ghanaian recipes. This is the definitive Ghana cookbook."
