POSTED BY LUMA:

​If you've ever had gumbo, egusi, corn soup with dumplings, or a simple curry chicken, you know that stews are a way to tell the story of the African Diaspora through food and they're a vehicle to memory.

​Savory, comforting, and filling stews and soups are essential pillars in African Diasporic food cultures. Join us in an exploration of the history, flavors, and variety of stews throughout the Afro-Atlantic World. We will demonstrate the culinary foodways, heritage continuities, colonial resistance, and adaptive transformations that African Diasporic stews communicate in their rich tradition.

​This is a tasting class so we will have several stews available for you to try, including legumé from Haiti, egusi stew with fufu from Nigeria, feijoada from Brazil, and Gullah Geechee Okra Stew with Carolina Gold Rice and Shrimp. We have several vegan options and all meat used is halal!
