Food And Table Accompaniments

Akopọ

Pounded yam without soup is only a lump of starch. Jollof rice with nothing beside it looks bare on the plate. Fried fish begs for a spoon of pepper sauce. A dish is rarely complete on its own, and the item that finishes it is called an accompaniment. Knowing which accompaniment belongs with which dish is one of the quiet skills that separates a thoughtful cook from a careless one.

In this lesson you will learn the two kinds of accompaniment, food accompaniments that the cook serves with the dish, and table accompaniments that the guest adds to taste. You will see why accompaniments are served at all, meet the classic Nigerian dish and accompaniment pairings that examiners love, and learn to match any dish to the accompaniment that completes it.

Akọ̀wé Ẹ̀kọ́

A young caterer in Ibadan serves a bowl of steaming egusi soup to a guest and sets it down with nothing beside it. The guest looks puzzled: where is the pounded yam, the eba, the amala? At the next table another guest is handed a plate of jollof rice, and asks for pepper sauce, only to be told there is none on the table. Neither dish was badly cooked. What was missing was the accompaniment, the item that completes a dish and lets the guest enjoy it the way it is meant to be eaten. A caterer who understands accompaniments plates food that feels finished, balanced and welcoming; one who ignores them serves meals that feel half done.
