  • Fufu is a staple food in many countries in West Africa, Central Africa, and Caribbean. Traditionally it can be made with starchy food like cassava, yams or plantains. This easy fufu recipe boils cassava and plantains first, and then blend them into a dough-like consistency. Finally, it’s shaped into small balls and served with soup, stew, or sauce. So satisfying and delicious!

      Well to feel like you can tell people how to respond on a public platform is just as wrong as you’re saying those who are criticizing/critiquing the video. If it was such an issue, the person who uploaded the video can very well turn off the comments or remove the content. And who are you to tell people who grew up making this type of food are wrong for addressing the flaws in order to help them make it a little better each time? This willingness to give out trophies for participation is the main reason why people think that their errors are correct. Cut the bs out, learn from the critiques & do better to be better.

    • @Metqa
      @Metqa Рік тому

      I was trying to find out exactly what Fufu is and my impression is it is mashed root and fruit like potato, but this is only the first video I've seen. I suppose there are different textures and flavors to this food? I don't know plaintains, If they are sweet or bland, they resemble bananas and I cannot imagine banana mash that doesn't taste like baby food.
      I am keeping an open mind though.

    Sincerely not wanting to bash or beat down this method, I’m simply suspecting that parts of it are unnecessary and not actually true to the West or Central African culture that I assume you are referencing. I am not an expert, but still highly suspecting my African friends would not be over liquifying this dish as shown, therefore would not need to wrap each ball of Fufu in plastic wrap to keep its form.
    Instead, I see my friends keeping the added moisture down to an appropriate level, and working the “dough” so that it becomes firmer the more the starch is handled or kneaded. Correct me if I’m wrong, but this should be formed so it can take the shape of a ball in the palms of our hand, and then the dough indented in the center as it spreads a bit. This is so we can use it almost like a soft flat bread to scoop up our food. Like using as a utensil instead of flatware to eat. I’ve yet to see this eaten with such soft/moist texture that a fork is necessary(?).
    I’m interested to hear others thoughts or experiences with this.

    • @Metqa
      @Metqa Рік тому

      perhaps it is regional and also personal taste. I don't know about fufu, but as it resembles mashed potato, i can also imagine that how people enjoy mashed potato ranges from soft and forkable like this video to chunky with bits of skin, to thick paste that is almost dough like. It depends on the person and who taught them. Perhaps this person prefers this consistency.
