Details
In this interactive cooking class, Marianne Tshihamba serves up dishes inspired by her travels. Take a trip to Chef Tshihamba’s home country, the Congo! Chicken Mwamba is a savory dish native to Central Africa that has been deemed the national dish of the Congo. It is a simple, but delicious dish that serves as a great introduction to African cuisine. Pair the sauce of the chicken with the sweetness of plaintains and you’ve got yourself a plate-licking meal! Lastly, Chef Tshihamba will walk you through the Congolese version of mashed potatoes (fufu), to round the full meal out.
Join Hill Center and Marianne for this tasty tour of Central Africa!
