What it is

Ingredients: yams or cassava, water; peanut sauce: groundnuts, tomatoes, chicken. Recipe: 1) Boil yam; pound hot to a smooth elastic dough. 2) Shape balls with wet hands. 3) Make the accompanying sauce. 4) Serve dough and sauce side by side. Serve: torn by hand, dipped — fufu is eaten with ceremony. Flavor: smooth, mild, sauce-hungry. History: yam fufu crowns Togo's yam belt festivals (the north's yam feasts mirror Ghana's).
