Making the traditional dough-like dish fufu, for example, is laborious and involves pounding cooked yams or cassava into a paste with a mortar.

Have you ever tried fufu or efo riro?

At its center, a substantial orb of fufu sits, a pale gold plantain mash formed into a plump dumpling.

Fufu tastes gently vegetal, and it’s a texture-eater’s dream, dense yet smoothly yielding.

The mild, squidgy fufu makes a perfect flavor-and-texture foil.
