Home Taste Jar Kokonte Flour

Kokonte — also called 'face the wall' in Ghanaian humor because of its dark color — is a traditional Ghanaian swallow made from dried cassava. Despite the playful name, kokonte is deeply loved and proudly served with groundnut soup or palm nut soup. It's a staple of Ashanti and Brong-Ahafo cuisine, where it's valued for its firm texture and distinctive earthy taste that pairs perfectly with rich, hearty soups.
