📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Rice bread is a sweet loaf baked in Liberian homes: rice flour or cream of rice is mixed with ripe banana, sugar, eggs, nutmeg, and ginger and baked. Moist in texture, it's eaten for breakfast or as a snack with tea or coffee. It's an old-fashioned treat made without wheat flour.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On an afternoon in a Liberian home, a fresh golden rice-flour loaf is sliced and served with cups of tea.
