Pairing Fufu correctly — a note on sobolo sorrel drink
Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Fufu. I ordered it with sobolo sorrel drink and the smoky and warming elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. dried fish in particular became more prominent in a good way.
fufu and soup eating requires communal sharing and is eaten with the hands. The a market jollof rice stall is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Fufu with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
