Wine Pairing
This fermented fufu recipe makes a delectable dumpling that originated from West & Central Africa. You can add these vegan dumplings into a wide-range of soup recipes.
Fufu can be made from cassava, yams, or plantains — which is boiled, pounded, and formed into a ball. The traditional way of creating fufu is by pounding using a large mortar and pestle. But today, you can just use a food processor. This is a much easier way to create these dumplings.
Cubans and Jamaicans have their tweak for Fufu recipes — they add animal fats like butter and bacon to elevate this simple dumpling.
This Fufu recipe is smooth and sticky like a Chinese dough. It has a tart and sour flavor due to the fermentation that balances out the flavor of this Delicious Vegetable Stew with Duck and Seafood.
This fufu dumpling recipe can be paired with vegetable stews and homemade sauce recipes — which then can be paired with chilled rosé wine. Check these food and wine pairing suggestions:
