YOU WONT BELIEVE HOW THIS GHANAIAN RECIPE IS MADE | COOK AFRICAN FOOD WITH LOCAL GHANAIAN WOMEN
Most Ghanaian dishes are labour intense and take hours to make. Its my very first time hearing of this Ghanaian food and tasting it. In this video we observe how Wassa Wassa, a northern Ghana traditional dish is made from scratch. We are in Sakasaka a town withing Tamale the northern part of Ghana. i hope this video provides some information to you on the food culture in Ghana and Africa as a whole.

After watching the preparation of wasa wasa, few things came to mind. Who started this? Like let me start by peeling yam, get the inside peel, dry it up, pound, then mill, steam, wash six times and the preparation continues. This is Soul Food, Africans we are just special, but work put in is just enormous. Another diamond added to the crown of our African Women, they are the true definition of Super Hero...

[@andromedab902]

Way hey!! Food fit for the gods, must be labour of love!! Still I'd like to strangle the inventor!!🤣🤣 Haaba!!🙆🏾‍♀️🙆🏾‍♀️

[@Triple-A]

@@andromedab902 seriously I want to know who started all this😂😂

[@andromedab902]

Really mind-boggling, maybe Jasmine better lead a delegation to the local chief's palace to get to the bottom of this or find a griot with historical knowledge passed down by word of mouth. Who knows what stories might be dug?? 🤣🤣

[@AngelaAnaghoTV]

I agree!! What a process!!

[@millicentdogbe7606]

Am sure it started during the famine season where they don’t want to waste any part of the yam

[@SweetAdjeley]

This was soo interesting to watch, Wao I’ve never heard of it before. It looks soo good. Thanks for sharing love ❤️

[@JasmineAmaa]

Thanks for being here Sweet ❤️❤️

[@akosuaish]

me too i havent heard of it before

[@zenabuaminu2057]

Is so yummy 😋

[@andsowhat6862]

Sweet AJ,I can show you how to make it from yam to wasawasa😁😁😉.

[@serendipity5832]

Mama is here oo💃💃💃

[@veraaddoyobo8482]

African women are one of the most hard working in the world 🌎

[@miketee4471]

These lovely ladies put in an incredible shift with the processing wow!! All the processing yes, gives the desired grain texture and taste but its quite necessary from a food safety point of view I think. Steam cooking alone to get the grain texture they're looking for may be enough to remove all the naturally occuring alkaloid toxins in yam so the repeated processing makes sense. Compare this with the shorter processing time for straightforward boiling of yam in water which removes quite a lot of these natural alkaloid toxins like cyanide and dioscorine etc without the need for further processing. Our ancestors deserve more credit for the food knowledge they passed on than they get 😀. Great video as always Jasmine! 👍🏾

[@DomTVGHHD]

God bless any soul supporting this channel.

[@BlessedDivinely]

I’m from North America 🇺🇸 and desire to visit Ghana 🇬🇭 one day. Your videos are helping me know what to eat when I get there. 😋 Thank you!

[@JoGardner876]

Same Only difference is I'm from Jamaica🇯🇲 Really living in Ghana through this channel

[@user-ee5rm]

You are welcome. I will host you dear

[@Itsurgirlgifty]

Thank you jasmine for exploring other parts of Ghana 🇬🇭 and putting us on the map .Big ups to you🙌🏽🙌🏽we love you

[@JasmineAmaa]

❤️

[@georgeacquaye3523]

Never seen or had this before. Looks very delicious. As usual most of our foods preparations r very labor intensive. Our women are amazing n have to be doubled appreciated. Good job Ama for bringing us such unique contents. Enjoy ur stay in the north. 👍👍👌🏿👏🏾

[@brotheramos1613]

So informative !! You help us heal from the separation from the Motherland. My haitian Grandmother in law cook something like the lady cook . And used cotton cloth to trap the steam. We are definetely family...👍🏾👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💐💐💐

[@kutialimmbi8758]

Hi,Jazzy,you must be really tired on this particular trip.I am glad you had a bite of the northern delicacy.I didnt see you eat anything in the previous videos,so i was kinda surprised,but am glad you did.it reminds me of how my mother used to wake up very early everyday,just for us to have something on the TABLE.GOD BLESS OUR MOTHERS ALL OVER THE WORLD.AND GOOD JOB,JAZZY.KEEP IT UP.

[@sheltaaseyeadjabeng8111]

All I can say is this people know how to cook well

[@JavaRatusso]

The look on your face trying it after waiting 5 hours... Lol.. One could just hear you say.. "why not just make Waakye?" Then you composed yourself saying it's really delicious! Lol Love these food prep videos! I still don't get how anybody can eat something so spicy hot as Shito. Foods look so very delicious in Ghana! All the fresh veggies and the intensity of labor, it does seem made with love and pride! You people are so passionate and awesome!

[@JasmineAmaa]

Loooll shito is delicious 🤣

[@adjoa-anima]

Not all shito is hot some are mild

[@larrysq8937]

Most Notherners born and raised in south like me never ate it.. we shall eat everything once we get back home

[@MiyzP]

I remember another KZbin called Skybelle first introduced this meal . I’m glad you are also exploring the Northern part of Ghana

[@legalpedagogue6514]

This labour is too much,may God.continueto give them the strength

[@KenyattaGross]

Amazing knife skills. The final product looked like a good vegan option.

[@eatwithafia]

At first i was wondering if they were coming to make something similar to amala (Nigerian smallow) since they were using a flour based on the inside peel of the yam but then when they started steaming it i was wondering if it was thiakry which is a millet couscous dish in Mali. The the plot twist was that it is served like waakye 😮. I say this to say that our food cultures across west africa are so unique but also share some similar techniques and ingredients. Another note, i would love to hear how you planned your trip up north

[@empresskrys8774]

Its really amazing to see how people back in the days knew how to make certain dishes. Im sure most of it was for survival but i would never have thought to use yam peel and prepare this. So healthy. So amazing! Africa❤

[@gracentefuni9128]

Am from.tje northern part of ghana we use yam peels for so many foods there are very unique foods in the north apart from the usual one

[@JasmineAmaa]

Longtime no see Grace, hope u r doing well ❤️

[@lmroselle]

That looks delicious, the long line before they open is a great testament in quality.

[@deborah4645]

The team work that goes into the preparation of this meal is phenomenal. This saying really really suits this video and the pottery video, "IT TAKES A VILLAGE ". It's so so amazing to see this awesome work ethics. I so loved your video and your TEAM WORK of producing quality videos is showing me your excellent work ethics. Every next video that you promote, however small shows so so much growth Jasmine and unbiased, I applaud 👏 you and your "VILLAGE ". 👏👏👏👏👏

Very popular in Northern Ghana where the best yam, "Laribakor", comes from, and is very plentiful. It's really delicious. Similar in taste to Israeli couscous
