Swap your rice-based meal for hanza once in a while!
It would bring you 3 times as much protein, 14 times as much dietary fibre, 5 times as much fat, 60% more Vitamin B9, 40% more Iron and 90% more Zinc. You would be eating a food that is better suited for diabetics. #Hanza is more satiating than white #rice, whilst giving you stable energy to keep you going longer. It contains 8 essential amino acids, of which 6 have concentrations exceeding the WHO norm.
Enjoy the tasty hanza biscuits!
Made from hanza flour, aduwa oil, sugar, eggs and baking powder.
Available at Sahara Sahel Foods, Zinder, for 750 F per box.

The generous woman who has been serving #hanza porridge to impoverished children in #Zinder since 2022 keeps going.
The #porridge is made of hanza flour, milk and sugar.
Due to the rainy season, a number of boys have gone to do farm work on the countryside. There are around 100 beneficiaries these days.
At one time, they had a hanza shortage, and replaced it by millet flour. The children however requested that the old recipe be reinstated, because the hanza was far more delicious !
Hanza cookies are hip!
