COCOYAM FLOUR Cocoyam flour is a fine, gluten-free flour made from the corms of the cocoyam/taro plant (Colocasia esculenta), a tropical root crop widely cultivated in West Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean. It has a slightly earthy, nutty flavor and smooth texture. In Nigerian cuisine, cocoyam flour is primarily used to make "fufu" — a starchy side dish eaten with soups — and can also be used in baking, pancakes, and as a thickener. It is an excellent alternative for those with gluten intolerance or celiac disease and is particularly valued for its digestibility and energy content.
