Fermented Cassava Dough is a West African staple often called attiéké — a couscous-like side made from fermented, grated cassava that is steamed or toasted before serving. It’s commonly used as a base for fish, stews and salads and is popular for its slightly tangy, light texture. As a food, Fermented Cassava Dough is primarily a starchy carbohydrate source, supplying about 36g of digestible carbs per 100 g, while being low in protein and fat; it also contributes small amounts of folate and minerals like manganese. Because it is fermented, Fermented Cassava Dough is easier to digest than raw cassava and traditional processing helps reduce naturally occurring toxins; however it provides less fiber and protein than whole grains or pseudocereals, so pairing it with vegetables and a protein source makes for a more balanced meal.
