I was just happy to
see African food in the U.S. You know, basic ingredients are the same, no
matter where people live, but depending on how to cook, it can be called
Korean, Chinese, American, or African food. The bread was made of flour, the
soup made of lamb, and the left side of the picture… what is it? Is it cheese? Bread crumbs?
Weldegergis said, “It is HALVA!” “How do
you spell?” “H.A.L.V.A. Halva~!”
I could not tolerate my curiosity, so I did quick web search with my phone. Halva
is a type of dense, sweet confections. According to Wikipedia, there were two
styles, flour-based and nut-butter-based, but I was not sure what kinds of
halva I had. Anyway, I had a nibble on halva, and the taste was really sweet! I
felt like it was a chunk of sugar, so I was a bit afraid of cramming them in my
mouth. However, having carelessly torn bread saturated in lamb soup with a
small amount of halva reminded me of my Africa life last year. Of course, there
was no need to use spoon or fork!
