I gave the lady at my local Nigerian food store the biggest smile when I, being the palest of English girls, went in and asked for Pounded Yam flour, I definitely made a new friend and found a great new store! Thank you so much for bringing these recipe techniques to everyone who loves them or like me, cant wait to try them! 😍xx
Fufu and pounded Yam are two different things. Cassava flour can be used to make fufu and Yam flour to make pounded Yam (poundo Yam as it's often called when made from flour).
I asked a lady in my area for egusi and pounded yam and she gave me fu fu when I got home and noticed I was pissed , I payed 25$ for that plate and couldn’t eat it smh
Abi,I'm glad you explained why the yam is pounded as much. I always wondered why, now I know. Also I didn't know what was swallow before now. Strong arms! 😁
Thanks you explained everything clearly its just a simple thing but so tricky to get the pounding in practice. I'm continuing to practice thanks so much x
I've found an easy video on fufu finally! Does it taste more like dough or is it sweet like yams? I want to try to make fisherman soup for my first fufu try.
She said labour intensive 😄, it's true. That's why there are gadgets and we must use them. My brother makes eba and Poundo yam inside Microwave and it always comes out perfect!
I tried fufu and all the soups taht come with it .. I narrowed it down to my favorite..egusi no meat and fufu... but in Colorado I've only had it from one restaurant and honestly it's a little pricey... but now I moved away from that city and don't have any fufu near me ;( I need to learn to make this asap
My dear sister Abi Wow😍 it's looks so good and so delicious my dear sister Abi enjoy much love for you my dear wonderful sister Abi ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👌🏼👍

I thought fu fu flour was pure grounded yam but then the packet ingredients showed that refined wheat flour had been added to make it glutinous. Buyer beware !
A lot of people are saying this ola ola company is not selling authentic powdered yam anymore, they say it potato powder. Do you have any other company you recommend?
@@nxnyj9616 Wooow I'm shocked, even the woman in the African store says that's what she uses for fufu, I ain't paying $15aud for a 1kg bag anymore, I just watched a video on someone making potato fufu, I'm gonna give it a try..
I think the first person to cook pounded yam didn’t have a kettle. Why put 4 cups of water into the pot when you can just put 3 cups and use hot water from the kettle to add if needed??? Ninja for you 🇳🇬😅
My African folks! When making an instructional videos, please, go straight to the point! All these other side stuff (describing spoons, describing the stores etc) is not needed oh! Thanks for the video anyway!
@ABI'S COOKING I'm sorry to tell you but this is not pounded yam because you neet to bye the fresh yam cook it till its soft and put it in a wooden bucket and pound it for at least 1hour with a wooden pole and the real fufu is made of fresh cassava and is cooked til its soft and then pressed true a really fine sif and then is also pounded like the yam for at least 1 hour non stop and you need to cook the yam and the cassava on a low heat for a couple of hours because the yam and the cassava is exactly poisonous that's way you shredded first and you wash it with water til the water is clear that's the way its done in Mother Africa 💪🏽
shes a mum of four and a working wife, she aint got time for that. moreover where in the title did she say "from scratch" lets stop pretending we all eat poundo
Why you complaining about video on her channel .??? It just sad you have such a very rude n unnecessary comment YOU NEED NOT TO WATCH HER VIDEOS IF YOU ARE SUCH A NEGATIVE PERSON...IM IN USA,TEXAS AND I WAS TAUGHT IF YOU DONT HAVE ANY THING GOOD TO SAY "KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT". I personally have learned so much from her and I thank her n her family for the JOY on this life journey we living so, please not NEGATIVITY on this Channel in this CHAOTIC turbulent world we now live in!!! MAY YOU FIND SOME PEACE, JOY AND COMFORT IN YOURSELF N ITS 2021 WE NOT RELIVING TRAUMATIZING SHENANIGANS AND ANTICS..NO NO NO !!!
We not living in MOTHER AFRICA okay..she has children across the world and they are living n thriving okay..and to Mother AFRICA children in AFRICA much love from USA, Texas..
@@khimonet5927 If you have the time for it try it one day and you wil taste the differens between how she make and how I told it i hope that you will give it a try one day 🙏🏽
Fufu...pounded yam...she did say however one decides to describe it and the title speaks for that as well. I don't think it's a major big deal that she called it fufu just because it's not made with cassava. Ugh. Must we be complicated? It's HER fufu version and she did a fine job. Especially for someone who may want to try this as a beginner. Thank you ABI

I just learned this recently 😆

I've found an easy video on fufu finally!
Does it taste more like dough or is it sweet like yams? I want to try to make fisherman soup for my first fufu try.
What are the proportions? How many cups of pounded yam flour did you use?
😂😂 Naija food is labour intensive , but one of the most delicious food on the planet 😅😅😅
How did it turn out?
She said labour intensive 😄, it's true.
That's why there are gadgets and we must use them. My brother makes eba and Poundo yam inside Microwave and it always comes out perfect!
Fufu is from cassava while this one is from yam.
Maa Shaa Allah swallow food require strenght but we love to eat it you prepared the poundo yam is well prepared
This was really helpful thanks 🔥
I tried fufu and all the soups taht come with it .. I narrowed it down to my favorite..egusi no meat and fufu... but in Colorado I've only had it from one restaurant and honestly it's a little pricey... but now I moved away from that city and don't have any fufu near me ;( I need to learn to make this asap
It require a lot of energy and strength.
My dear sister Abi Wow😍 it's looks so good and so delicious my dear sister Abi enjoy much love for you my dear wonderful sister Abi ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👌🏼👍
This stuff is £55-£100 in the UK. I haven't had authentic pounded yam in London since childhood 😩 I still buy it tho!
Oh my God. In the US I paid $15.00 for a 5 lb bag.
Where in the uk I can buy this girl
How many cups of yam powder did you use?
Is that Harina Ishola in the background?
Song please
Than you so much!!!
How long should the yam be cooked?

Not sure which is easier,this or the actual pounding of boil yam?😂 Boiled yam in a food processor is probably the best option.weldone sha..

8cups of water to how many cups of the flour?????
I thought fu fu flour was pure grounded yam but then the packet ingredients showed that refined wheat flour had been added to make it glutinous. Buyer beware !
A lot of people are saying this ola ola company is not selling authentic powdered yam anymore, they say it potato powder. Do you have any other company you recommend?
Really? I buy this from an African store here in Australia and I have actually noticed after I make it and I eat, it tastes exactly like mash potato
@@serg652on the Amazon in America yea the reviews all say it changed the formula it not the same.
@@nxnyj9616 Wooow I'm shocked, even the woman in the African store says that's what she uses for fufu, I ain't paying $15aud for a 1kg bag anymore, I just watched a video on someone making potato fufu, I'm gonna give it a try..
Where can we get this pounded yam from the uk ?
U should find them at african food/grocery stores
I think the first person to cook pounded yam didn’t have a kettle. Why put 4 cups of water into the pot when you can just put 3 cups and use hot water from the kettle to add if needed??? Ninja for you 🇳🇬😅
Hot food inside plastic cling film ? Is there another more healthier way ?
Buying fresh yam
Don’t break the cooker please! You need it!
team oatmeal abeg, this is so time consuming abeg
And again this is not 'fufu', it's poundo yam. Fufu is different o.
When i ever i try the thickness over powers me and makes it difficult to turn/stir 😭😭😭
You didn’t say how much flour
This is not fufu..fufu is from cassava while pounded yam is from yam..don't miss it up so people can know the difference. Thanks ma
It’s always a fight when making a well blended fufu. I be like “ bitch let me show you who’s in charge “!
Constantly having diarrhea not me
My African folks! When making an instructional videos, please, go straight to the point! All these other side stuff (describing spoons, describing the stores etc) is not needed oh! Thanks for the video anyway!
