Growing up, I can say, I ate a large variety
of pastry: from African (Chadian mainly) to French, American and Asian ones. I
was curious and fascinated how it was made. Christmas and New Year Holidays
were the best time that I could enjoy such delicacies. I would sneak in the
kitchen and observe my mother and other aunties baking them. Such memories
encouraged me to be passionate of pastry in General. It can be redundant such
blog some can say so. What can make my
blog different? What can I talk about pastry in this blog? I will focus more on
African pastries. I will post some recipes of some pastries that I tasted or
found interesting.
Regarding the
origin of pastry, many sources indicate, it came from the Ancient Mediterranean
which included Greece, Roman Empire, Phoenicia and from North Africa mainly the
Ancient Egypt. Then from being oil-based, it evolved as time goes by from one region
to another in term of ingredients, shapes, cooking techniques, and flavor.
Hope you
