Why Jollof Rice deserves more attention

Jollof Rice rarely gets the international recognition it deserves. The spicy and bold complexity is genuine, not simple, and the technique involved in using uziza leaves correctly takes real skill.

Nigerian cuisine varies between the Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, and other ethnic culinary traditions. I encountered it first in a family gathering and that context helped me understand it properly. zobo hibiscus drink is the natural accompaniment and the combination makes the case for the dish. If you haven't explored this cuisine seriously, Jollof Rice is the dish to start with.
