African Tapioca is dried cassava in small pearls and flakes, a pantry staple across West Africa. Soaked in cold milk or coconut milk with a little sugar, it swells into a soft, chewy, refreshing bowl that Nigerians eat as a snack or a light breakfast.
It also cooks down into a warm pudding, and works as a thickener when a dish needs body. Naturally gluten free, and it keeps well in a sealed jar once opened.
