Description of Cooking with the local Mammas

Today we’ll dive deep into Tanzania’s local cuisine and who knows most about food? The local mammas of  Tanzania. Depending on your schedule, the mammas will take you to a nearby market to get all of the ingredients for supper. You will hear the local vendors negotiating and advertising and selling their goods in loud screams in the market, which is already a wonderful experience in and of itself! You get to experience a real, local market and try your hand at negotiating for the best price.

Once the supplies are acquired, your mamma will explain and demonstrate how to cook one of their favourite, local foods, and you will have the opportunity to learn about the lives of Tanzanian mammas.

Then you’ll go to a local kitchen and learn how to make foods like ugali, wali, chapati, mboga, tuwi, and many more… These foods will be served at lunch! Which one do you prefer? We’ll have some time after cooking to consume the great food we just prepared.

This excursion is only available as part of a safari package.
