Gabonais meal in the snow
Last weekend, an old Peace Corps buddy dragged out the Gabon Gourmet cookbook and cooked up a storm. He sent away for palm oil, palm butter and the yellow piment. Cooked up some poulet yassa, some other thing whose name has escaped me — it's the feuille de manioc with salted fish, cooked in palm oil.
It wasn't bad. The yassa was awesome. I joked and asked him if he could've found some scrawny chickens, and surprisingly, he said he considered it. Heh.
With this arctic weather frigidifying the East Coast, I could use a month relaxing in Mayumba (in link, look in lower left, on the coast) right about now.
