Malo Kitchen Director and founder, Susan Timi has urged mothers to be positive about their passions.
Also participating at the National Trade Fair in Honiara, she produces two different flours from Cassava and some of her products also include ginger powder, ginger tea and turmeric powder.
Timi expressed that you can produce bread, biscuit, from these cassava flours.
She said for mothers who live in the kitchen, they must be creative.
“We must be creative in what we do in our kitchen,” said Mrs. Timi.
She told the mothers that Cassava is a stable food in Solomon Islands
“In many occasions, people go for plain flour and white flour in the stores. But its better for us to utilize cassava that we grow in our garden and make something out of it. And then there is always a food on the table,” she said.
Timi mentioned that there are also varieties of food that can be produced from cassava starch.
She did not attend any training to process cassava flour but because of her passion in the kitchen, she finally and successfully set up her business in 2021.
Timi thanks the Ministry of Commerce, Industry, Labour and Immigration (MCILI) for the support rendered towards her business.
Her advice to mothers out there is to always be positive and keep going.
“Always be positive in what you do. Never give up. Keep on doing it. Trust yourself. Think big and go forward,” she said.
