The main food that Zulus eat consists of beer (tshwala), Zulu bread, cooked chicken feet, meat, amasi, pumpkin, cabbage, tubers and phuthu or maize meal. Meat is roasted on coals, and is often left scorched almost black on the outside and very rare on the inside (inyama eyosiwe). The Zulus drink amasi which is sour, curdled milk. Milk is hardly ever drunk fresh ('green milk'), but it is sometimes used to thin amasi which has gone too thick to be used. Maize is a popular part of the Zulu's diet. One method of preparing it is to grind it to a meal, it is then cooked into a stiff porridge (uphuthu). The Zulus also eat dry beans boiled together with maize. The most popular are kidney beans (ubhomubhomu) and sugar beans (ubhonisi). Zulu beer is known as tshwala, and is an important part of Zulu life as it is an essential part of every ceremony or feast. Sorghum is the main ingredient of beer, and all families brew their own beer
