Attiéké

Attiéké 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, Attiéké 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, Attiéké 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.
