Inkono y'Ubugari

Ubugari, the thick paste of cassava or banana flour, is the foundation of every proper Burundian meal. You eat it with your right hand from a communal bowl, pulling off a piece, dipping it in the sauce, and making sure the elders get the best portions. The person who serves ubugari determines who eats well and the skill of serving fairly is respected more than any title.
