Description
Ground Sumbara – 50g and 100g
Ground soumbara, also known as soumbala, nététou, dawadawa or néré condiment, is a traditional spice emblematic of West African cuisines. Resulting from the artisanal fermentation of néré seeds (Parkia biglobosa), this product offers a pronounced, naturally umami taste, ideal for enhancing typical dishes of the region. Thanks to its ground format, soumbala can be easily incorporated into all your recipes without prior preparation.
Used in iconic sauces like leaf sauce, gumbo sauce or tomato fish sauce, soumbala brings depth, richness and character. It advantageously replaces industrial stock cubes, providing an authentic taste, without artificial enhancers. In fact, it contains no preservatives or colorings, and remains entirely natural.
Its slightly bitter scent, mixed with woody and fermented notes, gives the dishes a strong identity. It only takes half a teaspoon to flavor a family dish. In addition to its aromatic power, soumbala is rich in vegetable proteins, fibers and minerals. This traditional condiment is therefore both tasty and nutritious.
Packaged in 50g and 100g sachets, it meets the needs of individuals and kitchen professionals alike. You can easily store it in an airtight jar at room temperature, away from humidity.
Choosing ground soumbala means choosing responsible cuisine, rooted in African know-how. It also means rediscovering the tastes of childhood and dishes cooked by our grandmothers.
Other names: soumbala, sumbara, nététou, dawadawa, fermented néré, African condiment, fermented spices.
