[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even the more "mainstream" grocery stores sell "ethnic" foods. Even the Safeway sells Queso Fresco.[/quote] Not for us, we go to the nearest African store to buy things that one can't find in the "ethnic" aisle at Safeway and the like. We buy igname, attieke, special types of beans, favorite brand of evaporated milk, super ripe plaintains, sugar cubes etc[/quote] OP here and this is sort of what I meant... Obviously I am aware of ethnic aisles at mainstream stores but I know they cannot possibly carry lots of what someone would be used to getting in their home country. So my question was, do you find a way to get your home ingredients or make due with grocery store options, or just forgo cooking a lot of your favorite dishes due to being unable to authentically recreate them here.
