Some Of My Fav. Childhood Snacks I'm Craving For: ~Ginger Cake: Round Flat/Thick Spicy Tan Ginger Biscuit/Rusks,{We tend to call everything "Cake" }Some made as hard as Rocks! I prefered The Ones That Break easily:I Loved giving it a Kung-Fu Hit on my palms to break it up ~Groundnut Cake: Dunno The Ingredient for this But the tips were shaped Like arrows On Paper Thin Bars/Snaps: They were usually sold Side by Side W/ Sesame Seed Snaps,we call it "Beni Cakes" ~Binch Akara: Minced Black Eye Beans Fritters ~Beet Root chips: Sliced Paper Thin ~Plantain Cake: Over-Riped Plantain Mixed W/ Flour & Spicies

Re: ~ African Snacks & Appetizers ~ by mohawkchic(f): 11:38pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
~It is Yummy Mama G, One of those snacks once you start eating,you want more! ~I've been stuffing my face w/ it since i read seanT's Post: |
Re: ~ African Snacks & Appetizers ~ by SeanT21(f): 12:53am On Aug 07, 2009 |
@@@MC Yes, That's the picture.I love Kanyah so much. The only thing I hate about it is that it makes me freaking thirsty. Kanyah is a classic Liberian snack. There is no Kanyah here or maybe I am just not looking right.I forgot that U add Garri or Rice. PS: I think I read somewhere that U are from Sierra Leone. That explains to me why U know so much about Kanyah. |
Re: ~ African Snacks & Appetizers ~ by mohawkchic(f): 1:51am On Aug 07, 2009 |
~Yeah . . . I be Sa Lone Titi ~You can say that again @ Thirsty!! It's filling Too. . I havent been able to eat yet since i had the slices on the Plate on pic. . ~Am not aware if it's packaged & sold either not that i wud buy it even if it was! I Like how my Nana makes hers. . . .using Fine Garri,Peanut Butter. . eating Kanya w/ garri thats not parched properly sucks. . . . ~They were shaped either using the Scoop spoons off Baby Milk Tins or Cut out into rectangle shapes! |
Re: ~ African Snacks & Appetizers ~ by mohawkchic(f): 2:09am On Aug 07, 2009 |
~Your Sugar Cookies i think are our "King Drivers" AKA "Kill Driver" as its popularly known. . . Not one of my fav. ~I loved the pastry off Meat/Fish Pies but the Onions were off putting for me! I'd always be the one opening my Meat pie to get rid of all the Onions!: The only time I enjoy eating Meat Pie as an Adult is when i make a request for it to be made w/o Onions & for Cubes of Boiled Potatoes to be added: ~The Plantain Chips I remember were Long strips of fried plantain chips,almost the length of the plantain. . .not like the round small ones sold in african stores! There'll be like 3/4 in a packet! |
