Tropiway Plantain Fufu Flour 24 oz | Instant African Fufu

Tropiway plantain fufu flour (24 oz) makes smooth, stretchy plantain fufu in about 10 minutes. It's an instant fufu flour made from plantains, so you get the soft texture of hand-pounded fufu without the pounding. Serve it the way you'd serve pounded yam or amala: with egusi, okra, light soup or groundnut soup.

In French-speaking West and Central Africa, fufu is also called foufou or foutou.
