Igisura is the Kinyarwanda name for stinging nettle (Urtica dioica), a hardy wild green that grows in damp soil. Sold here dried, it is a nutrient-dense leaf — rich in vitamins A, C and K and folic acid, and high in iron, magnesium, calcium and potassium. Once dried or cooked it no longer stings. Simmer it like spinach or isombe with onion and a little oil as a side dish, add it to soups and stews, or steep a spoonful in hot water for several minutes as a herbal nettle tea. Rinse before use; store the dried leaf sealed in a cool, dry place.
Pate Jaune yellow maize flour in a wholesale 50 lb sack (umufuka). Milled from yellow corn, which carries more natural colour and beta-carotene than white maize, it cooks into a warm-toned ugali, posho, nsima or bugali to serve with greens, beans, meat and fish stews, and also makes a rich yellow maize porridge for breakfast. Add to boiling water and stir firmly until thick and smooth, then let it steam a few minutes. Naturally gluten-free. Bulk size for large families, caterers and resellers; store the sack sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture and pests.
Fufu flour for making the classic West and Central African swallow at home, without the pounding. Pour into hot water and stir continuously, then knead over low heat for a few minutes to a smooth, stretchy dough. Serve hot in balls alongside egusi, okra, ogbono, groundnut or pepper soup, or with vegetable and meat stews. A pantry essential for anyone who grew up on fufu, eba or pounded yam; naturally gluten-free. See pack for net weight and exact preparation ratio.
Unrefined red palm oil, 1.1 L — a household size for cooks who make African food regularly. Deep orange-red with a rich, earthy taste, it brings colour and flavour to banga and palm-nut soup, egusi, ogbono, jollof rice, beans and Central African greens such as pondu. Warm the bottle briefly if the oil has set. Store away from heat and light and reseal after use.
Wheat digestive biscuits — lightly sweet, crumbly and wholesome, with a mild malty flavour. Enjoy them with tea or coffee, spread with margarine or peanut butter, top with cheese, or crush them for a no-bake cheesecake or pudding base. A versatile everyday biscuit for the whole family. See pack for net weight.
Fine cassava (manioc) flour milled from dried cassava root — a naturally grain-free, gluten-free staple used across Central, East and West Africa. Cook it with boiling water into fufu or ubugali, use it to thicken porridge, soups and stews, or swap it one-for-one for wheat flour in pancakes, flatbreads and baked goods. Mild in flavour so it takes on whatever it is cooked with. Store in a cool, dry place and reseal after use. See pack for net weight.
De Rica is a premium Nigerian double-concentrated tomato paste made from 100% Roma-style tomatoes with only citric acid added — no preservatives, no artificial colour. Thick, deep red and intensely tomatoey, it is the base for jollof rice, obe ata, buka stew, pasta sauce and soups: fry a few spoonfuls with onion and pepper to start the dish. Large tin. Once opened, transfer any unused paste to a covered container and refrigerate.
