Ndagala are tiny clupeid fish (Limnothrissa miodon and Stolothrissa tanganicae), sun-dried in Burundi without any salt. This is a boundary entry, a dried fish rather than a true ferment. Fermentation is not the aim, but a slight fermentation happens while the fish dry, and it is stronger when cold weather or rain slows the drying.

Recipe
No fixed amounts recordedWhole fish only; no salt or other ingredient is added, so there are no amounts.
Whole Limnothrissa miodon
No salt and no other preparation. In another passage the same FAO survey calls ndagala Rastrineabola tanganicae and gives dagaa as Limnothrissa miodon, so its species naming is not consistent.[fao-ftp329]
Whole Stolothrissa tanganicae
The second tiny clupeid named as raw material for ndagala; these two species make up about 80 percent of Burundi's landed catch[fao-ftp329]

Ndagala are tiny clupeid fish (Limnothrissa miodon and Stolothrissa tanganicae), sun-dried in Burundi without any salt. This is a boundary entry, a dried fish rather than a true ferment. Fermentation is not the aim, but a slight fermentation happens while the fish dry, and it is stronger when cold weather or rain slows the drying. Made in 4 steps over 2 days – 5 days. The longest step, sun-dry on the ground or on raised racks, takes 2–5 days (Essuman K.M. 1992). Salt is 0 % (Essuman K.M. 1992).
Ndagala uses no salt at all and is meant to be a dried fish; fermentation is only a side effect of slow drying. Salted West African ferments such as momone are fermented on purpose before drying.
Dried ndagala is open to insects and mould and must be re-dried from time to time. The main moulds found on it include Aspergillus flavus, and many A. flavus isolates from Burundian foods made aflatoxins in the lab. The same study found no aflatoxins in the foods it tested.
Hazards the sources name: Aspergillus flavus, A. niger and A. sydowi, the main moulds on dried unsalted ndagala; Aflatoxin-forming A. flavus; 37 of 95 A. flavus isolates from Burundian foods made aflatoxins, though none was found in the foods themselves.
Raised wire-mesh drying racks were introduced at Burundi's main landing centres through a sponsored project, as the FAO survey of 1992 reports. Salt is very expensive in Burundi because it is mainly imported.
