    whe I see all these different African countries preparing their home foods, I realize how many of our African cultures we retained as African in the diaspora in the Caribbean and some of the South American countries. It warms my heart to know that we did not throw away all of our identity as many would try to make us believe. Thank you sis Helena and others like you. Without knowing, you are connecting many if us back to our African roots.

Apparently I can not get enough of my country, I am a female and I live in the Netherlands. I have been out of Liberia so long, it is not funny, I left since the 90s. The horror stories that we have being hearing got some of us afraid to come back home. God bless you and your family.

    1. History: Fufu/Fufuo means "mash or mix" in Twi (language of the Akan ethnic groups in Ghana) and is a specific staple food for the Akans in southern part of Ghana and Ivory Coast, West Africa but now commonly features in many West and Central African countries in different textures but not every doughy African foods are Fufu. Eg. is saying in Twi "fufu 3to (mash spicy ripped plantains mixed with palm oil eaten with peanuts) or fufu Gari Foto (mix spicy Gari with palm oil". Fufuo (also means white and derived from the white color of cassava) is soft doughy swallow food made out of boiled cassava mixed with plantains or coco yams and pounded together in a mortar (waduro) with a pestle (woma) unique to the Akans, and only eaten with liquid soups (nkwan) such as, Light soup (Nkrakra nkwan), Abenkwan (palm nut soup), Nkatenkwan (peanut butter soup), Abunabun soup (green vegetable) 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) with the liquid soups poured on the Fufuo/fufu to look like an island which helps reduce the stickiness while eating. *Right way to eat Fufu: In between both the index and middle fingers cut a piece of the Fufuo/fufu like a scissor, tap a hole in it, scoop the soup and swallow, never chew the Fufu in order to enjoy the taste of the soup while swallowing. *Authentic Ghana Fufuo/fufu preparation ⬇️1. czcams.com/video/PQIa0V9L-PE2/video.html. czcams.com/video/Ro7-6AYftkw3/video.html. czcams.com/video/i_nMyOSvMf8I/video.htmln the typical Akan region in Ghana, Fufuo is mostly use but Ghanaian businesses men used only the name Fufu when they processed the authentic Fufuo/Fufu into cassava/plantains /coco yam flour 1. czcams.com/video/SszPhlmWDJE/video.html 2. czcams.com/video/Z_XeI7n3aj8/video.html some years ago and sold mainly in Ghana markets in most western countries such as America because they couldn't pound the Fufu just like they would in Ghana, as it's very noisy when pounding and it became popular among other Africans and parts of the Caribbean and now Nigerians are calling almost every African doughy foods as Fufu even though they have their names; Nigerian Pounded yam (Iyan), Akpu (fermented cassava dough), Amala, Eba, semolina, oatmeal, cabbage. Nigerian soup textures are considered stews in Ghana since Ghana soups are generally liquid texture which aide in swallowing the soft Ghana Fufuo/fufu. Ghana stews [Palava sauce/Nkontomire stew (Egusi soup) or garden egg stew, egg stews etc.]. The thick textured Ghana stews goes with plain rice or Ampesie (boiled cubes of yams, plantains, cocoyams, potatoes cassava, Kooko/ taro root etc.) in Ghana. Okro stew or soup goes with Banku (fermented cassava/corn dough similar to Nigerian Akpu dough) in Ghana. *It's only Akpu (fermented cassava dough ) that some Nigerians call Fufu as a slang and it's because many Nigerians migrated to Ghana after Ghana's independence in 1957 and were sent back to Nigeria in 1969 and so they brought the name Fufu along to Nigeria. It's mostly the Nigerians living in abroad that have been calling almost all Nigerian doughy foods as Fufu but generally Nigerians call their doughy foods swallow foods.Just like Bofrot which Nigerians call puff puff comes from Ghana because in the 1980s, Ghanaians brought it to Nigeria and it was Ghanaians who were frying and selling Bofrot/Puff puff in Nigeria until Ghanaians were sent back to Ghana but now most younger Nigerians will try to tell you it's Nigerians inventions
    Also try the other Ghana🇬🇭 foods; original Fufuo/fufu from Ghana with Nkrakra soup (Light soup), peanut butter soup or palm nut soup. Waakye (waache) with Shito sauce, Ghana Jollof rice, Ampesie (boiled cubes of yams, plantains, cocoyams, potatoes cassava, Kooko/ taro root etc) with Ghana stews [Palava sauce/Nkontomire stew (Egusi soup) or garden egg stew, egg stews etc.]. Dokono/kenkey with fish and Mako sauce and Shito. Kokonte or Omotuo with Nkatenkwan, Abenkwan or Akatoa/agushi soup. Meat pie, Kelewele, Bofrot, Bens Bofrot, fried yams or Angwamoo with Mako or Shito sauce and Chofi, fish or meat and salad, Achomo, Ghana Chips, Sobolo drinks, Burkina drinks, Ghana Malta Guinness, Fanta, Asaana drinks, Kebab, chichinga/suya, Koliko (fried cassava), Ghana sugar bread, tea bread, Banfo bese (Awiesu), Poloo, sweetbad, Kube kake, Nkate kake, kube tofe, Alewa, Atatwe drinks etc.
    2. watch this video ⬇️ czcams.com/video/CLeI7TAGe4Q/video.html on Channels Television, a Nigerian news media where a Nigerian man wrongly gave false information to the Nigerian public lying on Ghana 🇬🇭 and claiming that Ghana's national Pona yams comes from Nigeria. *Pona yams are grown only in Ghana 🇬🇭 and are usually medium in size, sweet taste, white with smooth outer skin texture and eaten as Ampesie (boiled cubes of yams, plantains, cocoyams, cassava etc) and eaten with stews in Ghana . ⬇️ Pona yams- czcams.com/video/JUbhz-TT22g/video.html
