As far as holidays go, Kwanzaa is a relatively new one: It was created in 1966 during the height of the civil rights movement by Dr. Maulana Karenga, chair of the department of African Studies at California State University, Long Beach.
A half-century later, the seven-day festival — starting December 26 and ending January 1 — is celebrated by millions of African Americans. It’s a secular celebration of culture that’s rooted in seven principles: unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. And, like all holidays, it comes with plenty of delicious food tradition.
Kwanzaa is about family and community, and culminates in a feast, called Karamu, on December 31. The dishes served come from African tradition, but many also have influences from the American South and the Caribbean. If you’re hosting Karamu this year and aren’t sure what to put on the menu, here are some recipes that are perfect for it.
