Hawa Makes Lahoh (Somali Pancakes) | From the Test Kitchen | Bon Appétit

[@miqachu717]

Let it be known that Hawa presented to BA a fully realized pitch for a segment called Hawa At Large, where she would make African dishes and talk to guests about African cuisines and cultures. Not only they rejected her pitch, they used a photo of her with the BA chefs for diversity points, shot three videos with her AND paid her only $400 for each video. She’s since sworn off of working with BA ever again, and we all missed out on her radiant screen presence and African recipes. Shame on you BA.

The BA test Kitchen workers should unionize. That’s the only form of collective action that’s valid if you wanna support your fellow (BIPOC) workers. Striking and not going on future videos is good activism but the end goal has to be a sustainable systematic change that ensures that future workers will always earn their dues regardless of their skin color etc, and that’s not achieved by getting a few workers better contracts or by replacing certain managers.

Not rice, but reminded me of making dosa, more than crepes.

[@noangelthis]

Was thinking the same thing, especially the swirling with back of ladle technique and thé fermentation - also Pesarattu - a type of dosa which has a more herby batter with spices added in as well.

[@SMokkery]

I think they've called them pancakes just because they're more recognisable to people familiar with Western cuisine than dosa

Yum, give me all the fermented crepe like things please.

Once again, I am asking you to pay her more than the measly $400 you’ve paid her per video. After you do that, pay Sohla for her appearances in any of the videos. Kk thx byeee!!

@j mula no its white privilege that the white employees at BA are paid much, much more than $400 for their appearances in videos.

[@OK-hi5ym]

j mula can you explain? I don’t really understand what you mean? How is BIPOC employees being paid less than white employees “black privilege”?

We usually have it with olive oil or sesame oil you can use either to substitute the ghee
