African Americans brought okra or in African "gumbo". also yams and rice.
Yams, peanuts, goat (meat and dairy), chicken, onions, okra - really healthy and delicious! It really depends on the country, but staples are cassava, yams, rice, tomatoes, hot chillies, chicken, lamb, onions, okra and sweet potato greens, goat and fish of every kind,
A few dishes are said to have come from Africa with the slaves. Okra, black eyed peas, and yams are some.
Ah, what a delightful question! A group of yams is called a "bed" of yams. Just imagine a cozy bed of yams resting peacefully, soaking up the warmth of the sun. Isn't nature just full of lovely surprises?
The Africans brought yams, Bananas and sugar to Jamaica. They also brought rum and molasses. They brought other parts of their culture like cotton and iron with them too.
Yams were brought to Jamaica by enslaved Africans during the transatlantic slave trade. They cultivated the crop as a staple food, integrating it into their diets and agricultural practices. Yams have since become an important part of Jamaican cuisine and culture.
Africans brought several important crops to the Caribbean, including cassava, yams, and various types of beans. These staples were integral to their diets and agricultural practices. Additionally, they introduced crops like okra and rice, which became essential components of Caribbean cuisine. The influence of these crops reflects the blending of African agricultural traditions with the local environment.
I believe they are found in the vegetable section of the food pyramid.
In addition to slaves, other items imported to the new world from Africa included goods such as ivory, gold, spices, cloth, and crops like yams, okra, and rice. On the return trip to Africa, European ships brought back items like firearms, textiles, rum, and manufactured goods.
Artists, prepare your palates for yams! Yams ahoy! I'd really like another portion of yams, please.
Yams belong to the starchy vegetables group, which is part of the broader carbohydrate food category. They are rich in carbohydrates and provide a good source of energy, along with dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Yams are often confused with sweet potatoes but are distinct in flavor and texture.
Yams are mixtures.
