This week: The magic of West African cooking

Jollof rice is a war — a beautiful, passionate, deeply personal war between Nigeria, Ghana, and Senegal. This week we dig into why the debate matters, what each country's version gets right, and how to make all three at home.

Story: Why Jollof rice is the most debated dish in Africa (and what it tells us about identity)
New recipes: Nigerian party jollof, Ghanaian one-pot jollof, Senegalese thieboudienne
Community: "I made this for my Ghanaian boyfriend's family. They had opinions." — from comments this week
