fura da nono

Hausa · Hausa / Northern Nigeria; Niger; zongo communities in Ghana · Food

Fura (millet dough balls) mixed with nono (spontaneously fermented cow's milk), a popular drink-food. Okiki et al. report that nono is produced by Fulani women in northern Nigeria by leaving fresh milk to ferment 24-48 hours, and is sold in calabashes with fura as 'fura da nono'.

Fura da nono was sold from calabashes at the roadside.
