More than a recipe

Senegal.
A good reason
to eat together.

Senegalese cooking combines regional and family traditions. Our collection starts with a dish where onions and a tangy, savoury marinade are particularly important.

Chicken Yassa is the existing starting point. The recipe gives the precise balance of lemon, mustard and onions, with clear quantities rather than a generic seasoning recommendation.

The collection combines classic references and personal variations. Origin labels follow the existing cookbook and do not claim an exclusive origin.

Onions need room and time to soften. Prepare meat separately and safely before marinade and other components come together as directed.

A little cooking know-how

Good ingredients.
Simply explained.

Three tips to get you started. Each recipe gives its precise quantities, cooking times and variations.

Tasting lemon

Juice varies in acidity and yield. The recipe amount is the starting point; tasting is the final step.

Cutting onions evenly

Similar slices cook more reliably. An overfull pan extends cooking time.

Handling poultry separately

Keep raw marinade strictly separate from ready-to-eat sides. Cook poultry thoroughly.
