A Zanzibar Kitchen Journey

The Heart of the Table | A World of Inspiration

A Zanzibar Journey Through the Kitchens of Africa


Hubby and I are embarked on an African adventure! Besides the shots, mosquito repellent, neutral-colored clothing, and hats, the one thing I’m happy to pre-plan is the food!

African Sauce Treasures

Although springing up in several cities, African fare is still a unique meal to find. It just so happens that when reading several of the MUST-HAVE holiday gift guides, I came across Kitchens of Africa, a company with a mission to bring the diverse and exotic cuisine of Africa to the rest of the world. Originating in Raleigh, North Carolina, Kitchens of Africa offers a variety of sauces that we can use to bring the flavors of Africa to our home kitchens.

Flavor Explorations

Of course, I bought a box from Kitchens of Africa and received four different jars with recipes to go along with each. I decided to start with the Zanzibari Curry Simmer Sauce. I chopped some veggies and chicken and simmered them in the sauce. It was delish!

If you have a craving for curry, and you haven’t placed your order from Kitchens of Africa, do not worry. I’ve included a recipe from Canvas and Cuisine that will hold you over until you do! Spice up your dinner tonight with this extraordinary chicken and cauliflower recipe. Treat yourself to a taste of adventure by indulging in fried chickpeas and light yet creamy lime-avocado yogurt!
