This is a small issue , the guy who wrote the article does not know that most Kikuyus have survived on Mukimo. Its a balanced diet and since the Kikuyus are not that lucky to be near a lake , they had to use beans ama njahi a source of protein. I do not know who started cooking Ugali first coz they had to have maize, some used cassava flour and others used millet and others used maize.As for me i do not think the way you cook changes the taste its the ingredients that change the taste. Personally i have eaten Ugali cooked by a luo chick and the only difference i saw from the one i cook is she had to wet the Mwiko to shape the top basta. The writer and most wazuans are comparing yester years ugali and mukimo but this has changed different ingredients and get a different meal.

How is the food where you are at bwana kiash? I think you mentioned that you left the US and you are somewhere in Europe. Might you be in the UK where the epitome of their cooking is the Sunday roast which comprises mashed potato, some roast meat, Yorkshire pudding, some veges and gravy? And a pint of ale to wash it down on a sunday afternoon. Makes me miss my days in England.

1.Anthropometry of preschool children
2.Anthropometry of adult women
3. Prevalence of sub-clinical and clinical vitamin A deficiency
4. Prevalence of clinical and sub-clinical vitamin A deficiency in mothers during their last
pregnancy and during lactation.
5. Prevalence of anemia in preschool children
6. Prevalence of anemia in women of childbearing age
7. Prevalence of anemia in adult men

The region whose foods we dislike, ndio wako na afya sambamba.smile
Start eating healthy and nutritious foods like boiled/steamed Mukimo,Njahis,Potatoes,cabbages,carrots,etc and you will leave longer,stay strong and bodies such us WHO and others will pack and leave.Your kids will not suffer madeficiencies like macoins and kwashiorkors.
fyi,Ugali is not food,it's just an sos rescue.

Scientifically mokimo is a balanced diet, a full meal even without any accompaniments. Carbs (potato and maize), proteins (beans or peas), vitamins (the green leafy veg stuff etc). Can't compare that with ugali which is just carbohydrates, a nutritionally poor rudimental meal. Mukimo should be the most advanced meal in black Afrika.

You and @kysee have now missed the point! all those foods you've mentioned are eaten all over Kenya but "THE POOR KITCHEN/ COOKING SKILLS " what when where how is the problem. FYI ugali has accompaniment (veges /meat/milk/beans )though I noticed in campo ukuyus wanaipika kuuubwa na ya breakfasts

The blogger mentioned the 'it' and 'how' ie the composition and process , and even gave examples of mukimo and timbukiza. In my honest opinion timbukiza wins hands down since it's good for your heart and health. Healthwise, boiling always wins over frying and roasting.

We are just sensational and too general.Guy is a blogger rem,and traffic is important.

Not all luos can make a tasty fish dish- There is one who offered me what tasted like fish marinated in chloroquin,I hated fish for a long time.

Not all coastarians can make finger licking biriani.

Some luhyas ugali making skills can give one dye a rye.

Same case with kyuks.
C'mmon we/I know the real taste of mukimo if prepared by a good cook.
Luhyas too have their own Mushenye- mashed sweet potatoes and beans and last time I tasted, it was yummy.smile
No need rubbishing a meal because your gf or wife/hotel was /is a very poor cook. Rem. She's not the community's women's rep.
