Greetings Princess,
I reside in the UK, could you tell me where I can get Tsunga seeds please,
Love this post so had to share it on Facebook https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1994728467464348&id=100007816413589
Nice post and a serious issue, every black person gets penalised for having kinky hair, big lips and the beautiful shades of Africa skin tones, while the eye Euros love to mimic the dance attributes,
Hi. I just found u. I live in america. Im from the south. My dad is from trinidad. My mom was from here. Do u make soap? What is ur instagram? Could h do more sewing of ur traditional clothing?
I made the hamburger and kale recipe and it’s so yummy. Of course, I added a couple of my own tweaks: added a diced tomato and seasoned it with red pepper flakes, chili powder and cumin. We loved it. Thanks for a great recipe!
I read your post on quinoa and chimukuyu. I am looking for quinoa seed to plant in my garden. I bought some from pick n Pay In Harare but it didn’t sprout. Where else can I buy quinoa. I want to grow mine organically for own consumption. Thanks in advance for your kind help.
Found your post very useful, i was researching for ‘how to dry vegetables. We are not having very good organic vegetables in our area Delhi, so i was planning to dry vegetable purchasing organic vegetables from nearby farmers. Keep up the good work. Thanks Ashish (TablaIndia)
Hello Princess Tafadzwa, I am originally from Bermuda and just love that our little spot got mentioned in your blog (cassava pie). We make it a bit less sweet and add meat, as you know. I live in Canada now and it was hard to come by cassava until a small specialty (Filipino) store opened a little while ago in our small town. Now I have everything I need for Christmas!
Hi
I threw some cow peas seed in my garden and have some fresh leaves growing, i will use your recipe tonight. I love traditional dishes and currently living in South africa with my family. I will continue to motivate my children to eat our nutritious traditional food. I miss Zimbabwe so much.
Thank you for sharing your culture. During this quarantine, I am tired of trying to come up with new dinner recipes night after night. I decided to try something different. I found a website that will let me click a button and it will randomly suggest a country. We click that and learn about whatever country appears, including cooking the favorite recipes from that country. Tonight is Zimbabwe. It has been fun discovering new recipes and the food looks delicious. I had never heard of sadza before, although being from the South United States, I have eaten plenty of grits. I cannot wait to cook and eat dinner tonight. Thank you again!!
I made our Tilapia Recipe and it was AMAZING!
So Simple and Easy to make! I improvised the Salsa and added Tomatoes and Asian Chili Peppers to it for an extra kick! Spice.
THANK YOU So Much Princess TAFADZWA! I’ll be looking for more of your Amazing recipes!

Hi Philip. Store bought grains are treated so sometimes they will not germinate. I found this on facebook https://www.facebook.com/ZimbabweOpenMarket/photos/a.267612146712796.1073741829.267599593380718/388086094665400/?type=1&theater
