Cuisine of Equatorial Guinea

Cuisine of Equatorial Guinea


The Cuisine of Equatorial Guinea is a blend of the cuisines of the native tribes, as well as that of Spain (their colonial motherland) and Islamic states such as Morocco. As the wealthiest nation in west Africa[1], its cuisine incorporates various meats. These include game & bush-meat as well as imports. Fish and chicken are common dishes.[2]. As seen in the dishes here, chilies and other spices are popular. Equatorial Guinea has never been a particularly powerful nation.[3] and its cuisine has been influenced by other nations for centuries.[citation needed]

Drinks

Examples include Malamba, a sugar cane brew, and Osang, an African tea. Beer and palm wine, an alcoholic beverage created from the sap of various species of palm tree such as the Palmyra, and coconut palms are produced locally.[4]
