    mailxmail - Cursos para compartir lo que sabes Gastronomía y cocina de África Subsahariana Autor: Gustavo Jiménez Mora 1 mailxmail - Cursos para compartir lo que sabes Presentación del curso La Gastronomía del África Subshariana es el conjunto de artes y costumbres culinarias de las gentes y etnias que componen los países y la región que esta al sur del desierto del Sahara, que la separa del norte del continente, donde la gastronomía predominante es la del Mundo Árabe. Influida por las cocinas de los países que la colonizaron, el África Negra como también se le llama, tiene un plato común y único, pero con influencias árabes, inglesas, francesas, portuguesas y de la cocina de España. Conocer su gastronomía es encontrar una nueva dimensión de gustos, texturas y sazones que han permanecido desconocidas para occidente. Les invito a conocer el África Subshariana, a través de su cocina y su gastronomía, con recetas caseras y muy sencillas. 2 mailxmail - Cursos para compartir lo que sabes 1. África Subsahariana, y su gastronomía África con su carne autóctona, los aromas especiados y la fuerza del contrastante de sus sabores que son las notas más dominantes en esta gastronomía, tiene una cocina exótica y desconocida. Tremendamente influenciada en el sur por las culturas orientales y la facilidad que la une por el Océano Índico y también por las potencias que la colonizaron durante muchos años, la cocina de África es una cocina con sabores tan intensos y especiados que en muchas ocasiones es considerada una comida ardiente y picante. La cocina de este gran continente ha influenciado también y notablemente la cocina de América por la comercialización y desplazamiento de los esclavos que llegaron a nuestras tierras, y ha influenciado de igual forma algunas otras zonas del planeta, tanto por la inmigración, como por la colonización que los países europeos hicieron de esta amplia, desconocida y exótica región del planeta.

He knew all about success. And from a man like Samuel, the saying is somehow touching. Our bouquet of short stories and poems from the 51-year-old Pinelands Writers Circle reflects another “great inside thing” that has a lot in common with Sam’s. It’s the feeling a writer gets when that nebulous initial idea for a story, after having plunged into gross depths of dullness, despair and disenchantment, suddenly springs to life, takes off, and becomes an exciting reality that the creator had never imagined.

  • The Unfamous Five Nedine Moonsamy
    The Unfamous Five Nedine Moonsamy For Ma For Kama The children would see about the debt. But the debt remained. V.S. Naipaul, A House for Mr. Biswas. History of Lenasia Lenasia is a large Indian township south of Soweto in Gauteng Province, South Africa. It has now become part of the City of Johannesburg. Lenasia is located approximately 35 kilometres south of the Johannesburg central business district and 45 kilometres South of the Sandton central business district. Apartheid-era planners situated the group area for Johannesburg's Indians near the Lenz military base. The name "Lenasia" is thought to be a combination of the words "Lenz" and "Asia". The Lenz in question was one Captain Lenz who owned the original plot on which Lenasia is situated. Many of its early residents were forcibly removed under the Group Areas Act from Fietas, a vibrant non-racial area close to the Johannesburg city centre, to Lenasia. As segregation grew, it became the largest place where people of Indian extraction could legally live in the then old Transvaal province. It is a testament to the people who were abandoned here by the apartheid government, that Lenasia is now a vibrant and thriving community. http://www.lenzinfo.org.za/old_lenzinfo/ourcity/historyoflenasia/ earth June 1993 The front gates of Kumari’s home are like metallic jaws that swallow each of her friends upon arrival.
