The most authentic staple food in C? te d 'Ivoire is Attiéké, and there is no Chinese translation online. Attiéké is just a kind of cereal that is crushed and fermented into granules. Its appearance and taste are very similar to Gusgus, a small rice in North Africa, but it is a little sour and fermented, so I don't like it very much.

Attiéké is very sticky, so the local standard way to eat it is by hand. Black people also like to mix tomatoes, onions, meat pieces, etc. and grab them together with their hands.

The second staple food is Alloco and Klaklo. These two staple foods are two different things to the local people, but they are basically the same thing to me. In short, they are all fried bananas, but the difference is that the former is fried with banana slices with normal maturity, while the latter is fried with bananas with almost black skin. You may think of fried bananas, a traditional food in Wuhan, but its popularity can't be compared with fried bananas here. C? te d 'Ivoire is a big country that produces all kinds of bananas, so the production cost of Alloco and Klaklo is quite low.

Bread and rice are also local staple foods in C? te d 'Ivoire, but compared with Attiéké and fried plantains, the prices are not so close to the people. Local bread is no different from French bread. There are baguettes or whole wheat croissants and chocolate bread (there are few grape breads because there are no grapes locally). One of the characteristics of cooking in Ivory Coast is to try not to turn rice into white rice. Usually a small amount of spices or vegetables are added, but the amount added is not as much as the vegetable rice we ate in China, just to adjust the taste.

main course

The basic principle of local cooking is that no matter what ingredients are smoked first, they are called braised in local French (note that this is basically different from braised in French or braised in English). Followed by stew (rago? T) and braised pork, there are few fried and fried dishes that China people are good at.

food

Pork is not common, and chicken naturally becomes the most popular cheap meat for local people. There is a very famous local chicken called Pintad Pearl Chicken, also called African Chicken, which was quite noble when it was alive.

Beef and mutton are relatively luxurious ingredients in C? te d 'Ivoire. I usually buy veal in the street at the price of RMB per kilogram in 60 yuan, which is not cheap compared with the price in China. However, local cattle and sheep are often stocked, especially in rural areas, where lovely goats can be seen everywhere, and the pure natural meat quality is absolutely not lost to domestic production.

The most common way to roast beef in the local area is smoking. When cooked, mix it with onions and tomatoes and sprinkle with pepper and garlic cloves. This dish is called smelly duck by local people. Every night, there are many stalls selling stinky tofu in downtown Abidjan. Stalls are usually close to noisy streets. Mosquitoes and dust are Qi Fei, the sound of cars is boiling, and it smells like people in the lower classes, if you can bear it.

The night market is mainly for packaging. There are no bags in the package, all paper bags, and one book is only a dozen RMB. The local people are full of praise for this food. I didn't eat much, and the evaluation was good. Beef tastes hard but not old, but it tastes slightly heavier but enters the meat, which is very suitable for eating and drinking.

Chinese food pays attention to sauces and ingredients, while western food separates sauces and ingredients. Therefore, the sauce system not found in Chinese food originated from western food. When I arrived in C? te d 'Ivoire, as mentioned above, the method of making ingredients was relatively simple, so sauce has become a very important part of the eating habits of Ivorians. In particular, local people often like to soak fish, meat, meat and other ingredients in very thick sauce, which is far from the habits of China and France. You can feel it at will through the pictures below.

First of all, peanuts, roasted coconut shreds, etc. in glass bottles,

Chien means puppy in French. According to legend, many black-hearted stall owners used to hang sheep's heads to sell dog meat, which made people afraid to eat kebabs for a long time, and called street barbecue collusion Chien.

sandwich

Bread should be coated with a lot of disturbing sauces.

Gbofloto

Probably the most common breakfast for local people, which is basically fried dough sticks.

Jungle meat

Recently, there is a local food that is very popular in the world public opinion: jungle meat. According to legend, the earliest Ebola virus was obtained because humans ate jungle meat infected with Ebola virus, so jungle meat can not be found in the current market in C? te d 'Ivoire.

Jungle meat refers to the meat of wild animals caught in hunting, including the above-mentioned orangutans and monkeys, as well as various wild boars, antelopes and bats (roasted bats, a famous dish in Abidjan). Black people are not good at cooking. They often roast jungle meat into animal shapes and chew it, which often gives people a strong visual impact.

In people's impression, Africa is vast and sparsely populated, coupled with drought, laziness and lack of materials, it seems that there is nothing to eat all year round. In fact, we don't have to worry about these black brothers. Their food is not as bad as we thought.

Africa is not rich in products, but it can also grow some crops, such as rice and corn, which are the staple food of most Africans. In addition, it is said that there is a magical food in Africa called cassava, which is suitable for all kinds of eating methods and is very popular among African blacks. We often eat vegetables that Africans eat, such as tomatoes, potatoes, onions, pumpkins and celery. Meat, pork, beef and mutton are also common in Africa, but not everyone can afford them.

Africa is divided into South Africa and North Africa. Generally speaking, South Africa is relatively developed, with better living conditions and much better food. In North Africa, seafood is a luxury ornament. Long-distance transportation is costly and expensive. Most people won't eat it at all. But in South Africa, although seafood is also very expensive, there are many more people who eat seafood.

Here are some photos of African farmers' markets. I'll believe that when I see it.

As far as local prices are concerned, barbecue is not cheap.

It's easier to cut up the fish and sell it.

Prawn, this is a luxury. The price refers to Qingdao prawns.

African specialty, African snail. It is said that the nutritional value is high.

Finally, let's look at the fruit market in Africa. Look at a banana, there are not many kinds of fruits.

Cassava and plantain are usually staple foods in African food culture. As a highly adaptable organism, cassava can even grow on barren land. Therefore, Africa's cassava production is very high, accounting for half of the world's production. Cassava with various practices is also a unique flavor in Africa. Like plantains, Africans do not regard them as a kind of fruit, but use them to fill their stomachs. Of course, eat whatever you have.

Brother is back from the wild!

When black people eat, they think that no matter what, they like to eat roast bats, roast chicken, roast mutton and roast beef ... these are common foods in Africa, and they also bake bananas. Bread, such as pillow bread, will be sliced and fried. Barbecue frying, like a special cooking method for black people, tastes delicious, but it is also unhealthy.

In this respect, unhealthy food culture is also one of the reasons why black people don't live long.

Africans living by the sea like to drink coconut juice, and they also use coconuts or other grains to make wine. It is said that the only local wine that African governments are allowed to sell and drink now is called "Busa". When drinking, several people, even dozens of people, put their thin tubes three or five meters long into the jar at the same time and chat while smoking.

China people pay the most attention to "food is the most important thing for the people", and the food is also rich and varied. However, in the vast land of Africa, there are many kinds of food, but people may not be able to eat it.

Richer countries in Africa can pay attention to their diet, while the diet in poorer countries is really not good-looking.

Some of my classmates work in Africa. There are many Africans working in their factories. Sometimes the factory is very profitable. African workers are very excited to improve their food, cooking a potato stew chicken, cooking cabbage with big meat and so on, because this is a way of cooking food that they have never seen before. They never thought that simple ingredients could make such delicious food.

Most Africans eat without sauce. Maybe the staple food is potatoes, cassava or rice, and they all eat it directly with their hands dipped in sauce.

I don't know what these sauces are, but they are all stewed with oil, vegetables and meat.

I asked many people, and they all said that the main cooking methods in Africa are roasting and stewing. Some African girls cook in China factory and learn some simple cooking skills from Master China. They are very excited.

However, slightly richer African countries such as South Africa, Egypt and Ethiopia can pay a little attention to their diet and start using tableware.

South Africa produces a sacred meat, which is called "sacred meat Bilton" by the locals. Generally speaking, it is an excellent food with red wine.

Samosa is an appetizing snack in South Africa, which is very popular among local people.

The most popular food for barbecues in South Africa is undoubtedly this long sausage.

Simple and rude foods like South African sandwiches are also very popular.

Ghana is rich in food. Simply put, it is stewed with palm oil, vegetables and meat. And it is often made into a pot of soup. When eating, dip your hands in rice. This is the local ethnic food.

In the poorest countries in Africa, people may not be so picky about eating. They often eat when they are hungry (if there is food), while fewer people use tableware, and most people grab it directly with their hands.

Cassava and plantain are satisfactory because they are produced in Africa. Many people roast or stew them directly, which is also a staple food that many people like.

Some people cook banana rice, which is usually baked or cooked with skin. Anyway, the locals like to eat like this.

For many Africans, corn soup is a rare food. Most people in Africa live on corn, rice and potatoes, while the poor live on cassava.

Lemon is a kind of fruit all over Africa. It is strange for South African children and adults to pick lemons when they are not fully ripe and eat them directly with the skin.

Of course, Africa is very vast, and the food flavor is also varied. Please supplement your explanation.

(Text/A Bing)

Many friends may think that Africa is backward and poor, and the food is definitely not satisfactory. But is this really the case? Let's continue to see what they eat. Take their daily diet as an example, and you can understand.

1. Ugali This is their staple food, which is made of all kinds of miscellaneous grains powder and water. However, these miscellaneous grains contain cassava flour, which is mostly used to make snacks in China, such as taro balls. But most people don't know cassava. There are sweet potatoes, cold potatoes, potatoes and other potato foods in China, but cassava is rarely seen.

Cassava is equivalent to wheat and rice in China in Africa, and it is one of the staple foods of African people. In fact, in the famine years, our compatriots also had the experience of eating cassava, but with the development of agriculture, it gradually faded out of people's table.

However, due to its extensive cultivation methods, it is loved by lazy African people with low level of agricultural modernization. Data show that more than 60% of cassava in the world is produced in Africa.

In Africa, almost every agricultural family in sub-Saharan Africa grows soybeans. Cassava is also known as the "king of starch", so it can become the staple food of Africans.

Some people say: If you haven't eaten cassava, then you haven't been to Africa!

As a very important staple food, cassava tubers are soaked in water, peeled, ground and baked at high temperature to detoxify. The general shape is sticky dough, called "fragrant", yellow and white, which is eaten with vegetables. It tastes like a rice cake, but it is tougher, light in taste and full. There are also vendors selling cassava with zongye on the streets of Africa. The price is very low, a string is enough for one person to eat for a day!

2. Super food II-Nshima Many people have seen this kind of food in the video. In fact, it is corn paste, usually made of corn flour, and a small part is made of cassava flour or a mixture of the two.

Production method: grind corn into powder, pour it into boiling water, stir while cooking, and finally concentrate the finished product into imam. It is eaten in the same way as Wisdom Fofo Agbo, but it is best served with sauce or side dishes because of its light taste.

I don't know if my careful friends have found that corn paste is white.

This is because the maize varieties in Africa and China are different. From the beginning of16th century to the middle of17th century, Arabs and western Europeans introduced corn from sea and land to all parts of Africa. Horse tooth white corn has become the main edible variety in Africa. This kind of corn is resistant to fertilizer and water, with high yield and poor taste, and is suitable for making starch or alcohol. Therefore, it has become their full meal every day.

3. Rich fruits Africa is a huge wild orchard. Fruits such as mango, mangosteen, annona, avocado and banana are very common in Central and West Africa. Some Africans have mangosteen trees in their yards. In the mature season, this picture is enviable when you think about it.

But there is a banana-banana plain-which is not in the fruit circle in Africa, but is active in the staple food circle, and is affectionately called "African sweet potato". Rice banana is a wild variety. Raw food tastes very astringent and the pulp is hard and thick. However, after peeling, baking or slicing and frying, it becomes soft, waxy, fragrant and sweet, which is the best staple food in the hearts of many Africans!

When eating in a restaurant, the waiter usually asks whether the staple food is rice, French fries or bananas. Africans are very creative in cooking bananas, such as stewed bananas, fried bananas, bananas with Chili sauce, banana wine and so on.

If you eat in a restaurant, the waiter will usually ask whether the staple food is rice, French fries or bananas.

4. Seafood Africans sell seafood, which is really super cheap, 1 yuan a catty, and seafood is much cheaper than vegetables and fruits. The price of seafood in Africa is the same as that of vegetables in China, which is super cheap. It is no exaggeration to say that the African vegetable market is a seafood paradise.

However, seafood is not so popular in Africa, because it was fresh when it was first salvaged, but the weather in Africa is hot and dry. If no one buys it for a long time, the smell of seafood will be strong and pungent. Many local people have nothing to keep fresh at home. If there is a refrigerator at home, it proves that they are already rich, but ordinary people don't.

The main fish they eat are catfish, tilapia and swordfish cultured in fresh water. Shrimp and crab are generally not regarded as food. However, oysters have been widely planted and eaten, including cooked oysters that can be used as snacks.

Africans who eat dirt really eat dirt, which has a very long history in Cameroon, Africa. You can buy soil in any supermarket in Cameroon. This kind of soil is called kaolin locally, and every child has the experience of eating soil. This behavior is recorded in the local literature during the colonial period.

In fact, eating soil has been reported in many countries. In Wuxiang, Shanxi, China, there is a snack called Fried Fingers, which is made of loess.

Other countries, including Argentina, Iran and Namibia, have also recorded the consumption of soil. The study also draws some rules: in the tropics, this behavior is more likely to happen to two types of people: children and pregnant women. Pregnant women use soil to treat nausea. Of course, it also plays an auxiliary role in the fetus invisibly.

Attachment: Many people think that Africans are poor and backward, and Africa has no hope. In fact, the happiness index of Africans is very high. Although Africans are not very rich, they are easily satisfied. Although hunger is very common in Africa, in fact, even if they don't have enough to eat, they are not worried. Many Africans regard bananas and other tropical fruits in Africa as their staple food, and it is also very happy to eat bananas when they are hungry. Perhaps it is because their pursuit of material things is not too high that they can feel happier.

If there is anything wrong, please correct me. I am a "slow eater". I wish you all have a good time and learn something! Click like, let more people see this answer, thank you for your support! Because of my work, I worked in Uganda, Africa. I know something about African diets, so I will tell you what I have seen.

Uganda is located in East Africa, which is divided into dry season and rainy season, and there is no shortage of rain all year round. Moreover, the land in Uganda is very fertile and the farming conditions are very good. However, Uganda is not self-sufficient in food and needs relief from the United Nations. This is very incomprehensible.

We hired many local people in Uganda to take care of the lunch. Our company set up a separate black canteen and gave them meal tickets at noon every day. They usually give everyone a plate and add some soup to a spoonful of rice when eating, which is very good for them, but blacks can't watch with their hands.

The black diet is hard to understand. For example, black people can directly cook bananas with skins as a staple food, and the taste is similar to that of sweet potatoes. They can also air-dry banana jackfruit and add some rice to their porridge when they want to eat it. Moreover, blacks can drink it three times a day, and bananas and pineapples in Uganda are available all year round, so blacks have no income and don't worry about eating and drinking.

Everyone who can eat rice in Uganda is a good family, but the local rice in Uganda is not delicious. All the rice we eat is shipped from China in containers.

I don't know about other parts of Africa. I have only been to Congo cloth. The characteristics of people's diet here can basically be summarized as one sentence: "Eat whatever you catch". The staple food is cassava, which is fermented, dried, ground into powder, and finally boiled with hot water, and can be eaten in groups. As for other meats, it's really all-encompassing, only what you haven't seen and nothing they haven't eaten. I once visited their farmers' market. It was really a wildlife gathering. Small crocodiles are directly chopped into pieces for sale, and a catfish with a head as big as a washbasin is still pink. Monkeys can be kept for a long time without peeling or molting. A cobra more than one meter long cut off its head and cut it into pieces. Everyone divided it. Six or seven centimeters long, white and fat worms are sold as pots. Other nameless wild animals can also be seen everywhere.

Friends, African food, like African personality, reflects the cultural diversity of this rainbow country. Because it combines traditional African food with other sources. When you taste these foods, you must accompany them with African beer.

Everyone has the impression that Africa is a very poor country. When it comes to African cuisine, everyone may think that there is nothing delicious here. In fact, African people's diets are very distinctive. Now, let's introduce African food culture to you.

In the climate of Africa, the food here in Africa has formed a unique food culture. Africa is rich in spices, vegetables and fruits. Therefore, many kinds of food are mixed and cooked here. As for meat, most of it is baked and mixed with curry, milkshake and tomato juice.

South Africans like to catch animals and cook food with them. Africa's unique cuisine is to cut mutton or pork into cubes, put apricots into the meat, then put the meat on a wooden stick and bake it slowly outdoors. After the meat is cooked, it tastes very unique with corn porridge. Barbecue has always been loved by South Africans. The material is mainly pork and beef sausage, and various spices including cardamom, fennel, clove and garlic are added. It is slowly roasted on the barbecue wadding with lamb chops and steaks, and it is very delicious with thick corn porridge and special onion sauce.

Cassava is the main dish in Africa. There are many ways to eat cassava in Africa. Africans process cassava into granules, powders or lumps, which can be steamed, fried, boiled and baked. Cassava processed into different shapes has different names. Ivorians call this crushed cassava "Atiye Gai", which can be eaten with special vegetable juice after cooking. Many working-class lunches in Central and West Africa are just a bag of Atiye lids wrapped in plastic bags. Ivorians call cassava noodles processed into flour "Futu" or "Fufu". When they are eaten, they are brewed with boiling water, mixed repeatedly and mashed into paste-like dough like China rice cakes, and eaten with vegetable juice or other dishes.

When processing edible cassava pieces, you only need to cut fresh cassava into pieces you like, steam or fry them and eat them, just like eating sweet potatoes or potatoes. Roasting cassava is the simplest, as long as the fresh cassava is roasted directly on the fire, it can be eaten. It should be noted that raw cassava is easy to be poisoned, because the tuber, stem and leaves of cassava contain a cyanide called cyanoside, which must be soaked and cooked before eating.

There are many poor countries and regions in the world, where people often don't have enough to eat, but what do you think when you know that people in a place are eating dirt every day? In some parts of Africa, this phenomenon is real because of local climate and environmental factors.

Food can't be grown at all, and people there can only live by eating soil. They usually choose some good soil, first choose a piece of land, then dig up the soil layer, take some fresh soil home, and turn it into food after some simple processing and filtering.

People in poor areas of Africa will expose mud to the sun and then make mud cakes. In order to make mud cakes have some flavor, they usually add some seasonings. But if you eat this food in your stomach, you can imagine the consequences. Some people will have stomachache all the time.

Besides, there is a disgusting smell in my mouth. Eating such food for a long time will not only lead to malnutrition, but also do great harm to the body. Knowing their living conditions, do you suddenly feel happy every day? (The above pictures are all from the Internet)
