Miyan Taushe

What we know so far

Miyan taushe is the pumpkin soup of Hausa northern Nigeria: mashed pumpkin cooked into a red pepper base with groundnut paste, dawadawa (fermented locust bean), palm oil and greens, with goat meat or beef. It comes out orange, thick and slightly sweet, and it is eaten with tuwo shinkafa or any other swallow. The vegetarian version, with mushrooms and awara (tofu), is a common northern meal too.

What claiming it means

1. Cook it the way you actually make it. Change anything in our draft that is wrong, and most of it probably is.
2. Photograph your own, so the page carries a real picture instead of somebody else's.
3. Send it in. An editor reads it, and it publishes with your name on it and a link to your profile.
