Description

Fonio Ancient Super Grain 250g

  • Naturally gluten-free
  • Source of iron, zinc, phosphorus and vitamins B1 and B3
  • Certified FairWild, Organic, Kosher and B Corp - for kindness to people and planet

Aduna Organic Fonio is an ancient grain, prized for its delicious, nutty flavour and light, fluffy texture. It can be used as a gluten-free alternative to couscous, quinoa or rice. Use it in salads, soups and stir-fries or as a delicious, creamy porridge.

Native to West Africa where it is known as ‘The Seed of the Universe’, fonio is a drought-resistant, regenerative crop, helping to reverse the effects of climate change and generate income for the women’s co-operatives that we source from.

Aduna Ltd, PO Box 70832, NW1W 8AS, UK.

Loving it!

I’ve tried this product as my coeliac friend recommended it as a gluten-free alternative to couscous. Was really quick to cook and super tasty. Will definitely be back for more!

New staple for our family

Wanting to make healthier choices for our family, so tried this as a gluten-free substitute for rice. Worked really well, kids loved it and only took 3 mins which as a mum is super helpful!

Fonio best alternative for sensitive digestive

It is my go-to for grain, I use it as a rice or quinoa sub. I have intolerances and adverse reactions to certain amino acids in the above.

Its ok. Aquired taste.

Not to my taste but the packaging is good and its light as a food to eat. Not too heavy on your stomach. But does have a istinctive taste.
