What types of foods are enjoyed in the Congo?
How does their geography influence their dishes?
Can you make delicious African dishes at home?
The Congo is largely covered with dense forest land, from an eastern lake region to the western Atlantic coast. Crops are grown in mountainous areas and on high plateaus.
The savannahs and forests offer many types of game animals, and the rivers and lakes are teeming with various kinds of fish. Congo is also home to many fruits and vegetables used in widely varied culinary delights by over 400 ethnic groups that call the country home.
Each region in the country has animals and plants native to its local area. They can cook while using their own historical and cultural perspectives.
Fish is a staple, of course, for the people who live on the coast and near the rivers. The savannah regions provide ingredients for meat-centered dishes. In the forested areas, there is closer to a vegetarian diet.
The Congolese people represent more than just those indigenous to the region. You’ll find potatoes, plantains, rice, fufu, and cassava among your favorite foods. They are generally staple-type foods that are shared with other African sides. Turn the page. Let’s cook Congo cuisine!
