For the Ga people of Ghana, Kenkey isn’t just a staple food; it’s a cultural tapestry woven from time-honoured traditions. Soaked maize kernels transform into a fermented dough, its unique tang a whisper of ancestral wisdom.
Skilled hands mould it, then wrap it in vibrant banana leaves, each fold a testament to generations of practice. Steamed to golden perfection, the Kenkey emerges, ready to be shared and savored with loved ones. It’s a bite of history, a celebration of community, and a taste of the Ga tribe’s enduring spirit.
