Waiting for a cook
Ghana
Rice water is Ghana's rice porridge: rice cooked soft in plenty of water, stirred and crushed until it is loose and creamy, then sweetened at the table with sugar or honey, evaporated milk and a grating of nutmeg. It is breakfast for children, food for the sick, and a bowl for a late hungry evening, sold hot from roadside pots in the morning with bread or koose. It is lighter than a Western rice pudding and is eaten in every home.
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.
