A Swiss, an Italian, an American, and a Kenyan cooking ugali in a Berliner kitchen.

Shabu told us that at the beginning he was not able to prepare food in our kitchen. It’s hard to get used to other cultures food habits/ systems when your culture is so different. For Cristina it was difficult to eat with her hands 😛

Some notable observations:

• The ugali is shaped into a spoon to eat the vegetables so that no utensils are required.
• A lot of water is needed to clean the pan.
• Cleaning needs to be done quickly so that the ugali doesn’t stick to the pan.
• The preparation was surprisingly quick and simple. We only needed a spoon, a pan, and a pot.
• The ugali is shared from one big dish in the center of the table.
