That's really all you came here to tell us. It took your four

No. I asked about the cuisine. Ugali is the most widely eaten dish. It is
served with some kind of cooked greens or a salad that's very similar to
Pico De Gallo. I have ordered the corn flour for the Ugali.

Beyond that, I am still looking into it. Seems that beans and rice are
common, but I need the correct seasonings. I am on a website now that
mentions eggs and potatoes.

If you have anything Germaine to this cuisine, I'd appreciate it.

We can discuss it. I showed him the seasonings and sauces that I bought so
far.He merely nodded and said nothing. But he was on his way to work. Some
Amazon boxes arrived as he was leaving. We looked in there. No spices.
Should come in a day or three.

Right. The African restaurants here all seem to be Ethiopian. That cuisine
is far different than that of Tanzania, from what I have read. They have a
lot of Indian food in Tanzania. So I know now, I can make two dishes. I
ordered the corn flour for one and will need to make sure I have eggs for
the other. I know he eats eggs.

If you don't mind continuing:

Colonists from central Europe and the UK were rivals in Tanzania during the WWI, so some of the food traits will have their origins from there.

Can you be more specific about "colonists from central Europe"? Just
curious.

Presumably he means Germany. Before Tanzania was created, by the union
of Tanganyika with the island of Zanzibar, Tanganyika was known as
Deutsch-OstAfrika.

Oh, I was thinking of a more motley crew. If they were Germans, I'd
call them Germans, rather than "colonists from central Europe".

No, actually I saw that too. Both are served with Ugali, which I
referenced as the cornmeal sort of mush made to a ball.

Did you even try looking up foods from there or are you just assuming?

Cooked greens or a salad that similar to pico de gallo? I didn't
need to.

Here's just one. Plenty of others. They don't cal it that but it's
close enough to be a similar item. LOADS of cooked greens too.

Here's the link again Steve: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kachumbari

And this one with the pretty pic. You can see the Ugali sitting on top of
the greens and the salad!

I looked it up before I posted the first time. That's nothing like
pico de gallo which is a dip/condiment, not a salad.

Your foray into African cooking with be expensive and short-lived.

Yes. I did order the flour for the Ugali. The greens are usually Kale or
Collard but sometimes Spinach.

He must be assuming.

I didn't find a lot of stuff online for this. But I was mainly trying to
figure out what source of heat he might want when he said he wanted to add
heat to the dish. I didn't even realize that I had the chile/garlic sauce
when he asked. I don't remember buying it. I do have asst. Mexican type
salsas but the food he had came from an Asian/Indian fusion type place some
I don't think that would have worked.

In what way have I been a victim? Buying a few spices and seasonings is no
big deal. Even if I never make food for him, I'm sure Justin will eat them.
He's not picky.

Steve, if you scratch cook, a few extra shelf stable items that fit
close to her own uses, is not very expensive. Her budget isn't that
limited.

Scratch cooks feed families at 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of folks who can't
(or don't) actually cook. Example: I make bread at 47cents per 1lb
loaf. It's not only better than store crap, I can vary it for a few
more cents more but even my most expensive ones are way cheaper than
store versions.

I don't do it for cost, but because I like to cook. I of course notice
the cost is less because it's hard to not notice when others mention it
costs them 100$ a week to feed 1 adult... That's insane.

I saw. If you were here, I could have pointed you to 3 places that
have the right flour at a good price. We have a big hispanic element
and no, few are actually from Mexico (but some are).

I'd say so. I think he's not used to you googling as it's not
mentioned often but obviously you do like everone else.

It is a different 'heat' yes. Most of my peeks didn't lead to 'bland'
when you combined to a meal. It seemed there was always something that
was fairly 'hot' in the mix.

Did you catch much on lentils in your looks? I saw a few so that might
be wortch looking into since often handy at your place. They cook
quick.

Want me to pass some possibles there? I'm looking up recipes close to
that anyways for me so it's just saving a link of any that might be of
interest.

I saw bweans but not lentils. I would assume the Dal type of lentils might
be eaten. I have only done maybe an hour of research. I will look more

and not corn. I always assumed that maize and corn were the same. He said
they are not. He's my biggest cooking expert but he's not familiar with this
type of food.

I wish. I love asparagus. You probably don't. You only like beans, but
apparently there is some sort of conspiracy to deny you quality beans.
