NYAC S4E6: Issa Nigerian Feast

On this episode, we talk with Ozoz of Kitchen Butterfly, an excellent Nigerian food blog. Ozoz shares her journey to creating kitchen butterfly.com, her vision of reimagining, documenting and preserving Nigerian food and recipes. She also fills in the gaps in our knowledge of food migration via the slave trade. Then as a group, we list our favorite small chops, our swallow of choice (or not!)and drink of choice. And this would be an invalid discussion of Nigerian food if we failed to include Jollof rice (with a capital J!). Listen closely as Amayo shocks us with her amala aversion, as Ifeyinwa is swiftly rebuked when she mixes up “sah-lad” with “African salad” & laugh with us as we shade Ghanaian Jollof (in love).
