One of the most majestic trees in Africa is the baobab tree, mlambe in my native language, Chichewa.
Coincidentally, the hospital where I was born is called Mlambe Hospital.
The fruit from the baobab tree looks like this:
My Aunt came back from Malawi a few weeks ago and bought me a kilo of baobab fruit flour. When I was a kid, we used to eat the fruit and chew on the seed. It was delicious. During my last trip back home, I was introduced to baobab popsicles and I fell in love! I heard it's the next big thing in cooking and also in beauty products. I'm going to have a great time experimenting.
I'm a follower now! :-D curious to see what magical things you could come up with using this baobab flour..
