EBA FACTS
Eba
In West Africa, there are two types, white and yellow garri. Yellow garri is prepared by frying with the addition of palm oil to give it a yellow colour; white garri is fried without palm oil. Many variations of yellow and white garri are common across Nigeria. One variation of white garri is popularly known as Ijebu-garri. This is produced mainly by the Yoruba people of Ijebu origin. In Ghana, garri is judged by its taste and grain size. The sweeter types with finer grains are more valued over large grain varieties. Commercial food vendors, on the other hand, prefer coarser grains with high starch content, as this yields more quantity when soaked in water.
Buyers often look out for crispier grains when trying to determine freshness
