Eat an African heritage dish this week

Feb. 1 marks not only the start of Black History Month but also African Heritage & Health Week. Oldways, the Boston-based nonprofit food and nutrition organization behind the week-long observance, is offering a delicious challenge: Enjoy at least one dish, at home or at a local restaurant, “inspired by the cuisines of African-American ancestors” or Oldways’ African Heritage Diet Pyramid between now and Feb. 7.
