African Recipes eBook Makes a Difference

It's nice to see that some people still do care and that the Internet really isn't the cold and sterile place it's sometimes made out to be.

Anyone reading this Blog for a while will know that it actively supports the One Million People campaign to help educate the children of Liberian refugees forced to flee their homeland by civil war and who are now displaced to Senegal, West Africa.

A number of Sites now seem to have picked-up the story, or at least one aspect of the story, as you can see:

In some ways it's a shame that it's the Recipes of Africa eBook that's been causing a splash... But it's also a good thing. The eBook is truly an amazing culinary feat and it really does go towards supporting a great cause. I just hope that it's the cause and not the eBook that gets the attention. But, if the money comes in, who cares?!

So, what's the fuss all about. Well, the African Recipes Collection is all the work of one man. He's collected together recipes from each and every country in Africa and as well as making many of these available through the African Recipes website he's also gathered the recipes, information about their conutries of origin and information about the five regions of Africa into a single eBook.

The book weighs-in at over 500 pages and provides recipes for over 800 dishes. Most amazingly there are representative dishes in there not only for each region in Africa but also for each and every country! Name an African country and you will find several recipes originating from there for you to make and try at home.

You get traditional recipes, restaurant-inspired recipes, family recipes, colonial-inspired recipes, modern African fusion recipes as well as feast recipes. All the recipes you need for cooking any and all types of African food.

Just as everything else in Africa, it's food and cooking has for far too long been ignored by the world outside. This eBook goes quite a long way to redressing that balance. Now you can find out a about the typical recipes and means of cooking from anywhere in Africa. You can learn new techniques and new recipes and you can bring these techniques and recipes into your own home.

There is nothing else like this eBook out there today. I truly urge you to get yourself a copy now. Learn something new about food whilst helping those less fortunate than yourselves. The Recipes of Africa collection is the one must-have eBook of 2008!
