Gertrude Moundouti Mitoumbi came with her family to Vermont from the Republic of Congo in 2007 and now lives in the south end of Burlington. She makes a popular African dish for family gatherings and Congolese parties called “Gulu Mu Mako”.  The literal translation from the Bembe language is “plantains and pork.” True to Congolese gatherings, there will be music, so you might find yourself swaying Congolese-style before the end of the class. A Mosaic of Flavor is a collaboration of City Market and the Vermont Refugee Resettlement Program.
