Speaking of food, I have a question to ask you, my neighbors daraato maxey sameyeen calooleey oo markaad 20ft ka mareysid gurigooda walle xafadii oo dhan maxaa u mooday in bosaneero warshad laga furay, so as a Somali do you think calooley should be made in homes, and let your neighbors deal with the stench ? or simply go to a resturant and buy it directly minus the trouble ? what spices could she have added to the equation to eliminate the smell ?

Rabshoole, calooley will always smell but what you can do put in plastic bag with lemon in it and cook that way then dalac later and make sure its very clean when you cook to reduce the smell! and about the neighbors tough luck dheh or give them some after

I love soor and maraq But I have to eat with basbaas and moosYummy

What is it with somalis and grains and beans. Barley, corn, sorghum, kidney beans, azuki beans etc. Don't we have vegetables back home?

Soor & plain yogurt. Only for sahoor during Ramadhan, apparently. Not sure why that is.

Because it keeps you full longer, you have it for saxuur righ?

Yes, but only during Ramadhan. I never understood this.

Well we have mainly in Ramadan but once in a while we have when its not Ramadan its kinda like sambuus and Ramadan

So it's not just my family, eh? Lol, I see. Thought we were just strange.

Nope you guys are caadi, 99% of people who eat soor it around Ramadan

I ate Italian soor on saturday. My god caadi ma eheen! Some kind of farmaajo in the soor, could eat it without suugo, that's how good it was.
*droools*

Cheese huh? Was it cold to the touch? Was it sweet?

I forget the name of the cheese I'm thinking of. It's also used in tirimasu.

No it wasn't sweet but it tasted like old cheese Apparently it was expensive. My friend went of bragging about how much 500gr cheese is worth 100USD. And you have to order from some back alley in the Lombardy region, Italy. Probably bs, but the taste had me believe it

Edit: I could find out the name if you want.
