Yolele - Jollof Fonio Pilaf - Case of 6-7 OZ

Fonio is a gluten-free, quick cooking (in just FIVE minutes), versatile grain that has been grown and revered in Africa for over 5,000 years. It has a light, mild, slighty nutty taste and fluffy texture that absorbs seasonings and sauces beautifully.

Our Jollof Fonio Pilaf is inspired by the world-famous West African Jollof dish-- a rich and savory one-pot ricedish, cooked with tomato, onion, bell pepper, and hot chilis, usually served with braised meat or fish.

Our Jollof Fonio Pilaf blends the bold flavors and tradition of West African Jollof, with the original ancient grain of the region, fonio!

Serve with: Saucy braised meat or fish, hearty greens or beans, in fonio falafel.

Fonio Pilafs are inspired by the best-loved dishes and flavors of West Africa and are ready to eat in just 5 minutes. Fonio pilafs are light + fluffy and will make any meal more memorable.

Fonio is nutritionally dense, rich in important minerals and amino acids, and has a low glycemic index.
The grain is tiny when raw but expands over 4x its size when cooked and is similar in look and texture to couscous-- except it's an ancient, climate-smart grain.
Yolélé is a social enterprise founded by Senegalese chef Pierre Thiam and words directly with smallholder fonio farmers to increase incomes, combat the effects of climate change, and promote biodiversity.

To the Dogon people of Mali, fonio is known as “the seed of the universe” ...the grain at the root of all existence.
