Cheese!

I texted Julia one afternoon to tell her the oil with my rice tasted like cheese. Her reply implied that the heat was causing me to hallucinate. It’s a logical conclusion, but thankfully, the wrong one. Amadou explained that this oil is made by skimming off the top when they’re making sour milk, and then allowing this skimmed-off part sit for a few more days. Fulas can do anything with milk!

Sadly, our rice hasn't been cooked in cheese-flavored oil since...
