Kenyan Dad Tries Eating Fufu For The First Time In Ghana!

[@Yaa-b1v]

I just love dad. He is such a calm, loving, caring human

[@lily.9802]

Trudy, I’m not sure plants will survive without sunlight. Covering them all day with cardboard may not be the best idea. I think you should plant them in small pots /containers 🫙 and shelter them maybe on your patio/ veranda and then when they are more established, you can transplant it into the garden. Also watch some gardening videos on KZbin for more ideas. All the best.

[@deenamido3657]

My advice pls dont completely cover thé sukuma, they need constant supply of sunlight. For them not to dry up just surround thé ground around with leaves or grass for thé ground to maintain moisture. As a seed bed just raise thé Shelter much higher to allow Proper circulation of air around thé plant leaves. You can use some wood poles to raise thé Shelter.

[@edwardsvee]

Hi Trudy. I'm from Trinidad 🇹🇹. My two favorite Ghanian dishes are Kinkey (fermented cornmeal) and Peanut soup (cooked without Magi). Be sure to check with your dad's Nephrologist before giving him any food. Generally, I find most African foods are high in potassium, sodiun, protein, and sugars ... which are usually monitored in kidney conditions. Continue to take care of your dad. You are a loving and caring daughter. Sending Trini love 🇹🇹.

[@berthekabwe871]

@edwardavee, you are referring to West African foods which are completely different from Southern and East African regions. I'm from Southern Africa region and our food is nothing like West African food. Our food is similar to East African food. We cook different, our dishes are simple, less spicy and VERY lean. We hardly cook with lots of oil and we do not use palm oil in our dishes. We eat lots of different fish, chicken and occasionally beef, and when we cook, we do not mix our protein together. We cook each protein separate, chicken by itself and fish by itself. In West Africa they mix their protein together in one dish!!Our meals are always served with vegetables. Infact, Our meal is not complete without a side of vegetables. We eat cornmeal which is similar to ugali or "fufu". And we only eat rice on special occasions. Lastly, we hardly eat fast food or junk food, as these are completely expensive and out of reach for most people. Only people with money consume "Fast Food". Overall, there is a reason why the lifespan of West African are amongst the lowest in Africa. Perhaps, diet and other environmental factors has something to do with it.

[@MissTrudyy]

You are so kind… Thanks for sharing!!

[@nanaabena1882]

Kenkey *

[@denniscasely-hayford3245]

​​​@@berthekabwe871 We don't always mix the protein. For example, we can cook chicken stew or chicken light soup, where chicken is solely used. The same thing applies with beef, goat, and fish, where these proteins are solely used for stews and soups.

[@fatmatakamara1866]

Mixing of different proteins is fairly new. I didn't see this growing up. Only thing is that for certain dishes especially those made with red meat we must add Smoked fish, which is one of our major ingredients in many of our sources. West African food when prepared the way our ancestors did, without the jumbo, seasonings, over Mixing of different proteins is very healthy. I think we in the diaspora tend to cook it the unhealthy way. Vacation back home I have healthy and consistent bowel movements, lose of excess weight and healthy complexion. You won't find obesity as a problem in West Africa. Minor diseases including communicable diseases and lack of health care services is the reason low Life expectancy in West Africa. We do eat a lot of vegetables just not in the way others include them in their meals. Covid-19 came and found West Africans too strong to mess with and ran away. My people are strong, healthy and our food when cooked the way it is cooked by non diasporans is world class❤❤❤❤

[@spicebrowne2870]

Pllant the scuma in pots ,also add some manure and work it into the soil ,don't add too much at one time it will burn the plants. The blue net is good you just need to raise it off the plants and allow the air to flow

[@lily.9802]

As a Ghanaian it’s perfectly fine not to like Ghana fufu, Miss Trudy. The texture takes time to get used to. We’re not offended at all. It was interesting watching your dad trying it. Also that bowl of vegetables was so colorful before it got blended. 😍 and it was so interesting listening to your garden dreams. Can’t wait to see you bring it to life.

For the sukumas to thrive they need sunlight,so don't cover them. Do mulching use grass and manure to make the ground moist. You can also do drip irrigation to ensure sufficient flow of water to the plants.

[@julianayongbang5100]

Hello Miss Trudy , I appreciate seeing your garden. I also like gardening. Infact , food or vegetables from your own garden can be very tasty . I want to chip a little advice concerning your garden, You don't cover your crops up the way you did, because heat will kill must of your crops . It's better for the sun to be there than the heat . You just get to water your crops very well early in the morning, and late in the evening. The water will cool down your crops and it will do well.

[@MissTrudyy]

OMg! Great advice! Thank you! I will totally work on that

[@freshfertilefarms]

Trudy get the branches of a palm tree, as many as possible, then get some sticks of 1.5m - 2m each, plant the sticks in the soil to be very firm and strong. Mount the palm branches unto it to create a shade over your plants. And with that you'll have to water morning and evening, then you get happy plants.

[@maryadu8671]

You need a green house for your vegetables to grow properly. Your soil does not look rich enough for vegetables. Add more organic soil to your soil.

[@christineatieno464]

Build a shade improvise something like a rack and use boxes ontop or cassava leaves,banana leaves

[@ladyann4798]

In the Caribbean we don’t make fufu. We make cocoo from corn meal that we boil in water and add coconut water. Some people add ochro and stir it off and on until it’s done. It’s usually soft when it’s finished and hardens when cold.

[@Lieu_Tenant_Gambit]

I think adding plenty mulch (like dry hay or the like) between the skumawiki should help keep moisture in the ground. Also planting other taller crops between (maybe okra and/or mahindi/corn/maize) may help provide more shade and maybe a fruit tree

@MissTrudyy there's a filtration idea you could use to grow your vegetables

Hello Trudy, the best way to grow sukuma during hot or dry weather is planting it in perforated plastic tins or bottles. It becomes easier to irrigate and manage them. You can as well decide to shift the tins to a shady place when it becomes so hot.

[@EXPECTANDSEE]
