Nutrition Facts

Approximate values per about 1 cup (150 g) dry mix (one typical serving prepared). Actual values may vary slightly.

How to Use

Bring water to a boil in a pot (or heat water until very hot if using a microwave-safe bowl). Gradually sprinkle Mama’s Choice Plantain Fufu Mix into the hot water while stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or spatula to avoid lumps.

Continue stirring and cooking on medium heat until the mixture becomes thick, smooth, and stretchy, forming a dough-like ball. Adjust with a little more hot water or flour to reach your preferred firmness, then shape into balls and serve hot with your favorite soup or stew.

• Use less water for a firmer fufu and more water for a softer, more elastic texture.
• For microwave preparation, mix flour and warm water to a thick paste, then gradually add hot water and heat in intervals, stirring until smooth.
• Serve immediately for best texture and enjoyment.

Storage and Packaging

Packaged in a sealed 24 oz (680–681 g) bag or box suitable for pantry storage.

Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture, direct sunlight, and strong odors.

After opening, keep the package tightly closed or transfer contents to an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent clumping.

Warnings & Precautions

• Product is a dry mix and must be cooked thoroughly with water before consumption.
• Use caution when handling hot water and cooked fufu, as steam and mixture can cause burns.
