SENEGAL, WEST AFRICA - Today we are in a small village to meet Musa and his family for their Eid al-Adha celebration. They are preparing a whole goat that will be fried to go with rice, and stewed to go with Senegalese style couscous. It’s an honor to be here and I can’t wait to share all of the delicious food with you!
Welcome to a small village, not too far away from Joal Fadiout in central Senegal, West Africa. Musa and his family kindly invited us to their home for an amazing Eid al-Adha celebration. First we began with a unique breakfast porridge that was made from millet flour, kneaded into small pellets and sprinkled into hot water. The result was a delicious porridge that you eat with homemade sweet yogurt.
For lunch, the family prepared two Senegalese foods, a platter of rice with fried goat, and a platter of millet couscous with tomato goat stew. For both dishes many of the same ingredients were used - tons of onions and garlic, green onions, chilies, black pepper, tomatoes. Seasonings and ingredients were pounded into a paste and the fresh goat was marinated. The rice was cooked in the oil and broth of the goat. For the couscous it was quite a unique process, steaming, then mixing with baobab sap and baobab leaves, then steaming again. The result was an almost fluffy sandy texture. The couscous with the fresh goat meat tomato stew was a highlight. So good, and cooked with so much love!
It was an amazing day of village cooking Senegalese food in rural Senegal! The food and hospitality was unforgettable.
Thank you to Pape Tatandiaye (Visit Senegal / papetatandiaye )

I love how people make an effort to make Mark feel like home. I'm sure Mark doesn't need people to prepare fancy things for him. He's extremely humble.

[@ogundekoadegbenga3766]

Kids do not pretend. He loves the food and said he could eat it everyday. Pape is a good tour guide and Moussa's hospitality is top notch. Your channel has been giving me the ideas...wow...

[@booneysbarbecue5031]

man...the awesomeness of being able to take your son along is EVERYTHING to me right now

[@topote5224]

As a senegalese myself, I'd like to thank you for presenting the culture like that, because this idea of sharing is disappearing particularly in large cities like here in Dakar Btw that meal looks dope I've never had it before

[@Meba94]

Ohhhhhh couscous de mil!!! Having lived in Senegal for 4 years, I miss the amazing amazing food and of course "Teranga" of Senegal. The hospitality, the sens of sharing the little they have, the sens of togetherness..... to my brothers and sisters of Senegal, thank you for showing the world what humanity is all about.

Mark Wiems is a true gentleman. Love to watch his videos! The way he and his family honor the people and their cultures is inspiring. I dont think they have a rasist bone in their bodies.

[@godlingrapture]

Maybe not Mark: Ming still has some doubt though. You can see it through the silent actions. A ton of KZbin creators do not include their sig others. Negative vibes.

[@rozalindwatkins1189]

So blessed to have found Mark's channel. Have met Bishop Tutor Bismark in Pgh, Pa. and wanted to learn more about Senegal. God bless you Mark, I love your wonderful kind loving Christian spirit. A shout out to your parents, they are the reason you are so kind and loving.

Bravo Mark for showcasing positive African culture through food. So authentic.🙌👏🏾🙏🏾

This Senegalese serie is already among my favorites from this channel, it brings back memories of the many times I've been in Dakar

[@mosessunmusic]

This series seriously makes me homesick - even after moving out of Senegal 17 years ago. That onion/mustard sauce is of the legends. Can't wait to go back for their food someday... 😭

Sharing local meals is the best way to know locals, so rich cultures are waiting out there. I like also how humble you are, eating with fingers and sharing all good vibes.

Interestingly Morocco was the first time I tried Senegalese food (Best jollof rice ever). I saw a lot of Senegalese people in Marrakech and Essaouira. The restaurant was called Le petit Dakar in Marrakech.

So proud to be Senegalese. Since I was little,the best part of Eid for me is the liver dish after breakfast. I still do the same thing in the USA. The great thing is I can have the millet boulet already made, dried and packed and they can be stored for a very long time.

I love that your son is also embracing the food culture. He’s very polite and respectful which is very important to this culture. Please show us more of his reactions when he eats. He’s following in your footsteps. Please show us the pink lake of Dakar and try their yassa fish. So good ❤
