White gari
What is White Gari?
White gari is a variety of Garri predominantly produced by the Yoruba people of Ijebu Origin in Nigeria. It is known for its pleasantly sour taste, making it ideal for soaking. When you add cold water, room temperature water, or milk, it can be eaten with a spoon, similar to cereal.
How is White Gari Made?
White Gari is a creamy-white or yellow granular flour with a slightly fermented flavor and sometimes a sour taste. It is derived from fermented, gelatinized fresh cassava tubers. Garri is a staple food widely consumed in Nigeria and other West African countries.
How Do You Eat Gari?
Gari can be consumed without further cooking, as a snack, by placing it in a bowl and adding cold water, sugar, groundnut, and milk. This preparation is commonly referred to as garri soakings. Ijebu-garri, made with finer grains and a pleasantly sour taste, is particularly suited for this consumption method.
