Binatone has launched the Yam Pounder FUFU 6600P, a combined cooking‑and‑pounding appliance that is now being sold in supermarkets and electronics stores across Nigeria, as well as through online retailers Jumia and CD Care.
Pounded yam is a staple of Nigerian cuisine, often featured at Sunday meals, family gatherings and celebrations. The dish is prized for its smooth, stretchy texture and is traditionally served with a variety of soups.
Preparing pounded yam has traditionally required several steps: boiling the yam, manually pounding it until it reaches the desired consistency, and repeatedly turning the mash, a process that can be physically demanding and time‑consuming.
The FUFU 6600P is designed to streamline these steps by cooking the yam and then automatically pounding it within the same unit, eliminating the need to transfer the pot or perform prolonged manual effort.
According to the product description, the appliance aims to free up time for other kitchen tasks such as monitoring soup, setting the table, or interacting with family while the yam is being prepared.
Consumers can purchase the Binatone Yam Pounder FUFU 6600P at major retail outlets throughout the country or order it online via Jumia and CD Care, where it is marketed as a convenient way to maintain the traditional taste of pounded yam with less labour.
