Pearl millet is steeped, dehulled and wet-milled with spices, mainly ginger, and the dough is left 12 to 18 hours to sour. Large balls of the sour dough are cooked, pounded into a sticky mass and shaped into small balls, which are mashed into fermented milk (nunu) to make fura de nunu.

At a glance
Pearl millet is steeped, dehulled and wet-milled with spices, mainly ginger, and the dough is left 12 to 18 hours to sour. Large balls of the sour dough are cooked, pounded into a sticky mass and shaped into small balls, which are mashed into fermented milk (nunu) to make fura de nunu. Made in 6 steps over 24 h – 30 h. The longest step, ferment the dough, takes 12–18 h (Owusu-Kwarteng J. 2013). Limosilactobacillus fermentum, dominant at the end of the dough fermentation at all eight production sites studied and Weissella confusa, Pediococcus acidilactici, Limosilactobacillus reuteri, Ligilactobacillus salivarius, Lactiplantibacillus paraplantarum do most of the fermenting.

Safety
The dough is cooked, but fura is pounded and shaped by hand afterwards. In a Ghanaian thesis, untreated fura in polyethylene bags at ambient temperature held 8–9 log CFU/g of microbes and began to taste and feel unpleasant in the second week, which its abstract gives as a two-week shelf life. Its discussion says fura with such counts has a shelf life of only a few days. It reports total microbes, yeasts and moulds in storage, not pathogens. Coliforms in the steep water did not fall during a 12 h steep and dropped only in the sour dough (Amankona 2016).
Hazards the sources name: Coliform bacteria, about 5 log CFU/ml in the steep water; they stay or rise during the 12 h steep and fall to 1–2 log CFU during the dough fermentation.
Fura is a staple of the Hausa and Fulani. In Ghana it is made mainly in the northern regions and in Zongo communities, often by women as an income source.
