She wrote her book for the sole purpose of passing the art of preparing traditional Ethiopian cuisine to the next generation.
Her parents’ home was always filled with extended family, neighbors, and other visitors who delighted in the savoy dishes.
Running the household was traditionally the women’s job and learning how to prepare food started at an early age.
As a child, Mom observed her older sisters learn the art of cooking. She could hardly wait until she was old enough to start training. Instructions were done in stages. It started with simple tasks such as washing, dicing, and cutting meat and vegetables. Next, little by little under the watchful eyes of the experts, she was allowed to do more of the cooking. When she was able to prepare meals on her own, it was graduation time.
As an ardent student, Mom made it a point to write down procedures, the various ingredients and amount used in recipes. After she got married, Mom experimented with different amounts of the ingredients and different techniques. She never gave up until she felt the flavors were excellent.lihat lebih sedikit
