Dried fish seller, Bandiagara, Mali, June 1998 Photo ©1998 by L. Lee McIntyre |
Here, a dried fish seller in the market in Bandiagara shows off her stall. Dried fish is ground up and mixed into soups and sauces to provide flavor and protein. The fish is caught in nets in the Niger River and dried in the sun, then shipped by truck to distant markets.
