Waiting for a cook
Zimbabwe
Manhuchu is Zimbabwe's samp: dried maize kernels with the hull knocked off, soaked and boiled until the grains are soft and split. Plain, it is eaten with milk or with a stew; the favourite way is manhuchu anedovi, the hot samp stirred with peanut butter until each grain is coated. It is a whole-grain, filling, old-fashioned food, eaten hot or cold, and the Ndebele also cook it into a soup with melon.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 5 ingredients and 5 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
