Savoring African Flavors with Chef Kess Eshun

My target is not africans, is Non-Africans, well-traveled people, people that are not scared to try new things.
Picture yourself at a fine-dining restaurant, savoring exquisite dishes. Now, what if those dishes were Ghanaian, Nigerian, or Ethiopian? In this episode of Unwasted: The Podcast, Ghanaian chef and pastry artist Kess Eshun shares her culinary journey and passion for African cuisine. From her roots in Ghana to her professional career in America, Kess combines memories and modern techniques to create meals that are both magical and sustainable.
She highlights the importance of using quality ingredients and reducing food waste, a significant issue in the US where 40% of food supply goes to waste. Kess's tips are practical and inspiring—think freezing butter for the perfect pie crust or using Ethiopian spiced ghee for a flavor boost. This episode is a treasure trove for food lovers who are adventurous and eager to explore new culinary landscapes.
Kess's enthusiasm is contagious as she discusses the challenges and joys of introducing African cuisine to a broader audience. So, why not take a flavorful journey with Kess Eshun and discover the rich, diverse world of African cooking?
