Glimpse into Malagasy Culture Trough Food

A Glimpse into Malagasy Culture Through Food

This photo beautifully captures an essential aspect of Malagasy culinary culture: rice, known as "vary", is the staple of every meal in Madagascar. Served here with a hearty vegetable stew and a side of rougail, this dish reflects the warmth and simplicity of local cuisine, always prepared with care and flavor.

More than just food, rice is a cultural symbol for the Malagasy people – it marks daily life, brings families together, and embodies the identity of the nation.
