- Hello people! Hope all is well!
Back with another video this time won’t be touring Ghana but put a video together on a very famous and local dish “Fufu”.
“Fufu” is a staple food common in many countries in West Africa and Central Africa such as Cote D’Ivoire, Guinea, Ghana 🇬🇭, Nigeria, both Congos, Cameroon, and Gabon, and is also found in the Caribbean. It is often made in the traditional Ghanaian and Nigerian method by mixing and pounding separate equal portions of cassava and green plantain flour thoroughly with water. It is then adjusted to either increase or decrease the viscosity of the fufu depending on personal preferences.
1. Other flours, such as semolina, maize flour or mashed plantains may take the place of cassava flour. Fufu is often served with groundnut soup, palm nut soup, abunuabunu or light soup.
I rather eat jollof before fufu btw 🤪👍🏽😁 👋🏽
enjoy!
Thanks always for the love & support!

My friend from Ghana cooked fufu me with turkey and chicken stew yum
The ladies must love you! 🤣

EVERYONE! HIT THAT SUCRIBE BUTTON AND GIVE MY FRIEND WHAT HE DESIRES.
No wonder people of olden days never trouble from obesity because food preparation was exercise in itself.
hah! that's true
Now we are 600 pounds, and have touch tone everything!1

Because it’s not gmo food. Everytime I go back to my home country, Cameroon, I always lose fat even if when I eat like a pig. Once I come back to Canada I gain weight with all of this nasty food we eat
She almost turned that hand into fufu 🤣😭💗
And make delicious hand fufu..

@@marthaj6082 and psycho people buy the fufu
SERIOUSLY 😂😂
I love to swallow fufu with some sticky soup with the side of beef or chicken yum 🥺
My anxiety is through the roof! That hand was bout to be smashed 😭
I said the same thing whew 😭😭😭
I thought I was d nly one feeling anxious
I thought the same. I told my husband that my hand would be smashed!!
Mine too 😂
listen u hv to work with the rhythm of the one pounding it. i hv done it all my life and had my fingers smashed once. very painful but heals after fews day and you continue. but now we hv machines for it like the food processor.
That intense hand pounding made me realize that cultures that have food preparation that requires this amount of trust must be the most cohesive cooperative ones. If you can do this activity with anyone in your community and trust them to not smash your hand then it’s clearly a community with a strong bond.
Lol😆
🙄👩🎓
Exactly
Girl that was a whole essay. A+
I couldn’t trust anybody but my mom to make this with me. My siblings, my boyfriend, and my son would all smash my hand on purpose because they play too much😩
So much work going into this one dish for tik tokers to make a mockery of it
How are they mocking?... They legit wanted to try fufu. You can't force everyone to eat any food just for views. As they say, we eat with our eyes first. I thought fufu looked unusual and I was intrested in it, and I'm pretty sure those tiktokers were also curious to try it out. I mean sure there are ppl who got into the bandwagon but seriously? Mockery?
Actually they get it from an African food restaurant
Wdym? I bet your logic is that if a person dislikes it then that means they are disliking your culture
@@tw0471 well duhh but it takes time
This isn't the only way fool, there's much easier ways which is what restaurants will use for mass production.
This reminds me of pounding Mochi in Japan

My heart drop every time she stick her hand in the pan. I’m afraid of her fingers getting smashed.
There's a rythm in pounding fufu so yoi follow that rythm and your hand won't get smashed.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 @Kat Natural do you know how many times this is done in a week?
@Elinai Aggor how u know?
It is something we Ghanaians are use to it won't smash your hands,you just follow how the persons pounds the fufu and then you will know when and how you would do it , it is al about timing and listening
Dwl this kills me
Not only is she brave enough to put her hands while the person smashing, but she also touched hot coal with her bare hands. She fears nothing
She was also very friendly, she definitely is a good person.
Lol
It's actually called pounding
@Adwoa Appiah I know. I'm from SA
It's actually a normal thing here in Ghana
people should pay attention to that. Maybe we wouldn't have so many cowards today in America.
owee the fact that she trusted him with not crushing her hands .
This should be a "do you trust me" exercise for all couples. 😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
This process kinda reminds me of how people in Japan make mochi! It's so interesting to see such a similar, unique method used in different cultures
And funny, they have the same consistency haha
We're all one big family
@@1jazzyphae yes one big human family 🤗
mochi is kill old people, they try eat and die
This is dope! Who else came here from watching African food mukbangs😋
Me! I want to try it but I don’t have any near me .😭
@TAUNIA ELLIOTT that is simple but I would rather have it from someone experienced .

No

he has the purest smile
So I’m from the Dominican Republic and we eat mangu, and mangu is made out mash plantains with also have cassava mash this is great to know where some of my culture comes from
I’m Dominican too I was just saying that because Africans were were brought to dr
Percisely!!! Africans were explorers long before Europeans. They crossed the Atlantic to Brazil so i'm positive that the method of food pounding is there too.😊❤🇯🇲
This guy has the cutest smile and seems so happy to be teaching us about his food. :3. 💗
It takes rhythm and coordination to pound the magical Fufu , food for the gods .
Sure does!
@@GadielEdwards Yes it takes rythm, but sur could make it easier by rubbing her hands with cooking oil.
@@GadielEdwards i will try this food more love from #+254🇰🇪🇰🇪
Yeah because if you miss that rhythm your hands will be going to the gods.
@@angeliquekikudi4331 it will mess up the texture of the final product .
This man is so cute and his personality is so pure 🥰😍
I thought he was going to smash her hand but he didn't they are really in sync with each other ✌
Yep. It has to happen that way! 😂😬🙏🏽
So cool! That's where my Puerto Rican mofongo comes from. As well as the Dominican mangú and fufu de plátano from Cuba. Same thing, different flavors. That's our heritage!!! ❤
I just wrote the same thing before I even saw your comment I'm Puerto Rican and that's exactly what it reminded me of I'm like throw some pork rinds in there I always make mine with shrimp and garlic sauce and it's amazing you should see my white neighbors reaction when they hit with the explosion of flavor
Everyone's heart pounding 😨 thinking there's gonna be smashed fingers..
My heart pounding just looking at him😳💓.....That smile!!!😁
1. History: Fufuo/fufu means mash or mix in Twi language of the Akan ethnicity in Ghana. Fufuo/fufu is a specific staple food for the Akan ethnic groups in southern part of Ghana 🇬🇭 and Ivory Coast, West Africa.
Fufuo (also means white and derived from the white color of the cassava/fufu is soft doughy and made out of a mixture of boiled cassava mix with plantains or coco yams pounded together in a mortar (waduro) with a pestle (woma) unique to the Akans and only eaten with liquid soups such as, Light soup(nkrakra soup usually from garden eggs, aubergines, carrots, tomatoes, onions, peppers), palm nut soup, Groundnut/peanut soup, Abun abun (green vegetable soup usually from Nkontomire leaves), werewere soup, akatoa (agushi) soup with meats, fishes, snails, crabs, mushrooms and okro (nkruma) on the side. Fufuo/fufu is usually served in Asanka or Ayowaa (an earthware bowl; black or red in color). Yum yum 😋😋😋🇬🇭🇬🇭
Authentic Fufuo/fufu ⬇️

2. ruclips.net/video/-YRv5agXQjU/видео.html
Right way to eat Fufu:
Cut a ball of the Fufu , make a hole in it and scoop the soup and swallow, never chew the Fufu. Lol
Fufuo/fufu is celebrated every with Fufuo/fufu party by the Akan news mediums in Ghana 🇬🇭 every year.
The adulterated fufu powder sold in the Ghanaian markets in the western countries is what has caused this confusion and now everyone wants to call every doughy food fufu, even the Nigerian pounded yam and akpu (which is bankye mmore/agbelema/fermented cassava), Amala (Kokonte), Eba (Gari Fufuo), semolina, cabbage dough with Egusi stew [Palava sauce (Nkontomire mixed with Akatoa (Agushi) stew or only Akatoa (Agushi) stew] and Okra stews are now being called Fufu by Nigerians in recent times and it is sabotaging the authentic Ghana Fufuo/fufu and making the name popular and trending internationally in USA because of their large numbers which is wrong.
Whenever you visit Ghana 🇬🇭 ask for Fufuo/fufu chop bars (Fufuo/fufu restaurants) and you will be surprised that it's all over in Ghana.

In the depth of a typical Akan region you will hear Fufuo mostly but when Ghanaian businesses men processed the authentic Fufuo/fufu into powdered cassava/plantains /coco yam Fufu powder years ago and sold in markets in America, Canada, Europe, UK and and most western countries because they couldn't pound the Fufu in the mortar with the pestle in those white countries as it's very noisy when pounding they shortened it to be Fufu because fufu in Twi means marsh or mix and eg. is saying in Twi "fufu 3to or fufu Gari Foto", and because of the Fufu powder it became popular among Africans and parts of the Caribbean. So most West and Central Africans started calling almost every powdered doughy food Fufu.
If you are younger or haven't lived in abroad for a long time you wouldn't even think about the origin of Fufu because the new generations don't necessarily care to know their history much. Hope you researched more on how and why when you see every Fufu powder both in Ghana and abroad, you will see it's a Ghanaian product.
If you are an Akan, but you are younger or haven't lived in abroad for a long time you wouldn't even think about why it's called both Fufuo/fufu in Ghana because it's been part of you since the day you are born or you maybe younger and just don't know the history.
I am an Akan and it makes me proud when other people eat my staple food Fufuo/fufu with the liquid soups in the right way but to sabotage and replace it with other doughy foods simply because it looks similar is unacceptable.
We must learn to give credit to the origination of our foods, our inventions and also give credit to other people's foods and inventions accordingly to give respect to our heritage. That's why there's plagiarism.

Thats amazing, in Colombia I was raised eating cassava (yuca as we know it) and plantain, for breakfast, with fish specially really popular, even to babies we give it all pounded like that, it makes them really strong😍 pleased to know other cultures and see we share a lot of similarities
That is from the African influence 🥰

I grew up helping pound fufu when I lived in Ghana as a kid, great video that brought back memories for me!
🙏🏽❤️
I still pound fufu. I tried turning it once when I was a kid and my sister hurt my thumb. I've been pounding since then.
I still would love to try fufu someday. Watching someone prepare fufu is a beautiful cultural experience and im glad to be here.
Omg when they were pounding it I had extreme anxiety!
About what? This is a cultural thing done with technic for centuries and centuries, and centuries

Reminds me of how Mochi is pounded with two people doing this same dance of avoiding getting their hands crushed while keeping the rhythm to get the work done faster. That is true trust building... Amazing stuff!
Hi I just wanted to say thank you for your video on how to prepare and make Fufu. I have several friends from Facebook who are from different regions of Africa including Ghana and Nigeria. I just mentioned to one of my long distant brothers, what is very popular there. The one I have most contact with is from Ghana and he said Fufu. So I told him if I come across a video and I really enjoyed your video on everything that goes into making Fufu. I will be letting Benjamin know I have found a recipe I think I can make and dedicate it to him and his family in honour of Africa and the beautiful people who are from there. I immediately Subscribed to your channel before I even sent you this comment. With much Respect... Love and Appreciation Michael Finley from Tucson Arizona USA. Peace from me to all of you. Blessings always.
I found this to be very relaxing to watch. Cooking heals the soul 💕
Fufu is delicious and someone give me some with a peanut butter soup it's was so good
Yes, delicious, also with okra soup
Yessss siss mmm mm mm 👏🏾
@Tye emerald Williams *I don't like the taste of peanut butter, but I would sure love a nice bowl of corn soup and pot roast with my fufu!*
With okra and crabs 🦀 soup,it s the best!
Why am I Ugandan coming on here looking for Nigerian soup recipes only to see this fufu making video which was hilarious and fun to watch I promise❤️. Love from Uganda 🇺🇬
Cassava and platain fufu is the king of all fufus.
I love my ancestors 😍🤗
OMG I kept pulling my hand back the entire video.
Haha 😂 it be like that tho! I vividly remember making this sound “ouuu” every time I thought her hand was about to get smashed but YOU MIGHT NOT EVER WHITENESS THAT IN YOUR LIFE 💪🏽❤️
I'm happy watching this
Watching from Philippines😊
Fufu is like Pinoy food "LUPAK or NILUPAK". The only difference is we added butter/margarine, sugar and grated coconut😀
Amazing to watch other cultures prepare food❤️
❤️❤️
The level of trust she has 🥰
Love it that's the real food with Love💓😊👍
Love seeing how other cultures food and the way it's made. Amazing!!!
Your the cutest boy I ever seen I think I’m in love ❤️😍😍 seriously now I’m literally in love ! ❤️❤️🥺🥺🥺
They put so much hard work in their food ...looks awesome
With soup it's looks yummy yummy yummy
Omg this is really fun to watch
Hi ! I'm from Micronesia ! We also make fufu but in my island, we call it lihli (lili). We also make fufu from yam , tapioca , breadfruit , swamp taro, banana, etc.
This is soo cool thanks so much for sharing
You are so very welcome! 🙏🏽 ❤️
Truly a labor of love….
What a beautiful looking masterpiece.
In Indonesia, this food is similar to 'gethuk' (A traditional Javanese snack). It is made from steamed cassava which is ground together with granulated sugar and food coloring, shaped in various ways. And eaten with steamed grated coconut. 🙏🏻
I love pound yam & Okra Soup 🥰🥰
Hes so happy when tastes the fufu, makes me smile
I just love it 😇❤
Its always intersecting and enlightening to see how other cultures prepare food and the different methods of doing so. Thank you for sharing. ✌❤
We made our fufu in Cuba just with plantains, and then make a sofrito with onions, garlic, and chicharrones on top of it. The casabe ( yuca for us ) we made it the same way but cooked as bread. Inherited from our indigenous Siboneyes, Taínos, and Guanahatebeyes. I would love to try this fufu version 😍
That is exactly how Puerto Ricans make mofongo we actually mold it into a bowl and pour shrimp and garlic sauce in it it's amazing they also make a version with crab meat that is to die for
Awesome nice to know different people's cultures..
Love it
African food is healthy and delicious a few years ago my friend from Ghana cooked fufu for me with a nice turkey & chicken stew yum African people are gorgeous too
The way she's pounding and your hand is inside the motor makes my blood boil lol
My heart was racing!!! I was scared 🤣🤣
@Wheat bread In prison IN JAMAICA WE WOULD SAY, "IF THAT MASH YUH HAND.KAKA FART!"
Experts
My heart was beating fast. You people are good o
😀😀😀
Am a Ghanaian, I do both the pounding & turning on my own...its actually fun & exercise preparing fufu.
Thank you for this very charming informative video
This video make me happy
It's kinda like how mochi is made!
This was beautiful to watch. So interesting to me
I wonder if a mixer can do the same thing
Thanks for sharing!!! 💯❤️
Y’all so happy and motivated ,I love it
When I saw him shuffle them hot coal with his hands, I just knew part of me had to be Ghanaian 😂
In Indonesia, we call it gethuk, a traditional javanese food that often combine with palm sugar syrup, or may be some slices of palm sugar
It's not the same and we only have one ingredient in common which is cassava.
That looks GOOD.And fun to make.
Wow great
Carbohydrates in cooked, mashed banana with mutton or beef curry
Receip preparation easily digestible. GOOD FOOD
Plantain not banana
Am a Ghanaian and an Ewe too and hearing u say thank you in Ewe sounds so funny 😂😂😂😂
Lol! 😆🤷🏽♂️❤️
This was amazing.
The timing over the fufu preparation process is remarkable. By watching this, we can say African culture and traditions are way ahead of time.
I eat this once by a friend he is from ghana was delicious with meat..omg.
0:52 the amount of trust she has on him😃
Im Jamaican & I love me some fufu with some light soup!! Thank you for sharing !!
This lookd healthy and perfect for black soup
omg i was on edge the whole video, i thought her hand was gone be done 😂
How they pound the ingredients into fufu is very similar to how they turn rice into mochi in Japan ^^
This a skill no one may unstand but I understand uh must put love for family to eat
Awwwh he's so cuteeee nice video. I want fufu
I was so curious about Fufu after seeing a mukbang with it, but it took a while to find a video of someone actually showing how it was made properly. It's so cool. I'd be interested to try some :)
Edit: you also have a delightful smile.
Just befriend any African !You ll be served !Tou are welcome !
I TASTE FUFU YEARS YESRS AGO MY SISTER EX BOYFRIEND WAS AFRICAN WE LOVED IT
This is honestly why I love South Africa, we have all types of African tribes here... I'm always open to eat and learn from our tribes...
