My Nigerian co-workers told me fufu is meant to be a delivery vehicle for whatever it is dipped in. You roll a little ball, put a divot in it and it's like an edible spoon. It definitely increases the heartiness of whatever you eat it with -- it is pretty filling. A little surprised we didn't see any peanut or okra stews, but maybe that's another video? Africa is a huge continent with lots of tasty regional cuisine!

I mean Africa is humungous to be fair, there are so many cuisines, even in the same country there are so many variations between tribes and what not. The one single time I went to Africa I visited Congo for a friend's wedding (his family paid for the trip and I was told it would be disrespectful to decline to go, I was extremely ill at the time, so it was certainly a trip lol) and I loved it. The people were incredibly nice, the food was amazing, and there were so many styles of food in the small area I wound up being in. It actually reminds me of South Korea and Japan to be honest.

It’s like being back home in the Caribbean, which of course was heavily influenced by African cuisine. Rice and plantains are staples. In PR Cassava is yuca (root vegetable) and it’s used in stews, fried with a dip, with onions and many other ways. Plantains to me are either crispy flattened plantain you add salt to or a sauce on top (fried plantain or tostones) or fried but soft and sweet (sweet plantain or maduros). I don’t eat gizzards but that’s one of my family’s favorite.

They should also have done roasted goat meat. Here in this video they barely scratched the surface of the possible range of African cuisine.

1st time I had Plantains was from a San Salvadorian restaurant. They were long cut and soft (not dry chips) and served with refried beans and sour cream. They were so good. Such an odd mixture if sweet and sour, hot and cold, but delicious all combined together.

The deep fried plantains i had were Puerto Rican and my friend said they were way overcooked. And they were amazing. The restaurant is the size of a room and people are lined up down every street and the line of people goes around the building several times and down the street

Watching them eat gizzard 1st time was HILARIOUS! I grew up eating it & using it in soups & fried. We eat it all the time.
