Iru, also called dawadawa or sumbala, is a traditional fermented seasoning made from African locust beans. It is commonly used in Hausa, Fulani, and other West African cuisines to add a rich, savory, umami flavor to soups, stews, and sauces. The fermentation process gives it a unique aroma and deep flavor..[1]
