FuFu and JamaJama


Huckleberry leaves



Water FuFu


The traditional dish of Cameroon is called FuFu and JamaJama. FuFu is a cornmeal based ball that really has no flavor at all and JamaJama is Pigeon for Huckleberry leaves. You take your fingers and scoop up the FuFu and squish it together with the JamaJama. I made the mistake of eating the whole ball of FUFu and I felt like I had a bowling ball in my stomach the rest of the day! My favorite Cameroonian food so far are puff puffs. They are basically fried balls of dough and they taste so good.
