  • Tum-Tum is a dish with African roots and it is closely related to Fufu. It derives its name from the "tum tum" sound made by the mortar and pestle during the cooking process.
    Tum Tum can be prepared as a vegan/vegetarian dish or made incorporating meats as well.
    Ms Eintou Pearl Springer and her daughter Attillah Springer demonstrate how to make tum-tum.

    Ms. Eintou brings the Truth to something we often take for granted: food. Our connection to Earth is critical and she clearly expresses that connection, invoking Ancestors and showing gratitude. I cannot express how grateful I am to have somehow seen this episode and found myself sitting at the feet of such a person. Thank you, Ms. Eintou. You are a blessing beyond measure.

      @@AV-nf8xd she is either saying 'donne mwen' which is 'give it to me', or she said 'bwoi mwen' which litrally translated means 'wood me', but I think she is saying 'give me the wood'. The 'wood' in this instance being the mortar and pesel.

    I thoroughly enjoyed watching this episode. When I saw the word "Mofongo" I rushed to watch this (because that is one of my favorite foods) but this is unlike Mofongo because the green plantains have to be fried before mashing, this would be similar to what is called "Mangu" (boiled and mashed green plantain).
    ...but this looks like a more delicious and hearty version of that, and I enjoyed Ms. Eintou's words. She was dropping a lot of gems low-key, and showing us how native foods not only nourishes but keeps us connected to our ancestors, in which I appreciate my own family for showing me as well. Food as Revolution!! 😁

    • @jaredrios9575
      @jaredrios9575 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mofongo doesn't have to be fried. Fried mofongo is just the most popular. The plantains can be boiled or roasted. What makes mofongo is that it's much more dense then all the fufús and has to have pork and some kind of fat. Slaves in Puerto Rico where given a diet or mainly plantains and pork scraps (mostly dry pork) they mixed this with the traditional fufu recipe that came from Africa.

    • @josweetlove1537
      @josweetlove1537 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@jaredrios9575 truth. The enslaved Africans used the foods available to them. Mofongo, Tum Tum, Fufu, pong plantain are all closely related thanks to the creativity of our African forebearers.

    Love seeing Ms. Eintou again, love the cooking class in our food. Please do more Afro/Caribbean food. However, it is God Almighty, God of the Bible we have to give all praises, for making the earth and the food we eat, and giving us rain and sun in due season. More important than that, it is the God who created the earth, looked down from heaven and saw that we needed a savior in the Jesus Christ, because try as we may, we cannot absolve our own sin, being sinful by our very nature in all we do and think. We need Jesus Christ.

    Good recipe. I don't use so much seasoning in mine though. I like to make maafe (an African peanut stew) to go over mine which has it's own distinct flavour. So I get the sweetness of the plantain and the hot spiciness of the maafe which also has vegetables in it. Delish!

    🎊🎈🎆Happy New Year Greetings🎇🎈🎊
    I'm a Trini Red Woman🤪 Living in Denmark
    for ages . The last time I ate Tum-Tum or Pong Plantain😋 was probably way back in the 80's . I was still a child, or very young girl in my early teens !
    My memory, of eating Pong Plantain back in the glory days is very blurry, dim .
    When next I come to Trinidad, I will ask my mother to make me some Tum-Tum. I will buy all the plantain, all the seasonings, healthy ingredients, all the Ochro and dasheen bush; and she can cook Tum-Tum and Callallo, and I want some Stew or Steam Fish 🐟🐋🐡👍💯💥 🤣.
    Tum-Tum, good old memories for me.
    Pong Plantain 😋 Callallo 😋 Steam Fish 🐋.
    Couchella, and plenty juicy, tasty pepper sauce🤤🌶️🌶️🌶️😋
    Thank you
