the opp doesn't know anything about biterleaf soup!


Biterleaf soup is the ultimate soup!

a well prepared biterleaf soup with well fermented ogili to boost its medicinal value is equal to the ultimate cure!

biterleaf soup is the reason why Anambra people live very long!

a well prepared biterleaf soup with full condiments of azu asa or mangala and fresh meat from the the laps of a matured cow multiplies a mans life span by 100%!

anambra people are the ultimate performers in bed because biterleaf soup keeps our manhood kampe and help us produce strong children with ako na uche! thats why you can hardly see any nwa anambra that is useless! cool

I'm just not fond of Ewedu. It's too bland for my liking.

That is why you take it with something that has plenty of meat, fish, crayfish, seafood etc.
Some just add stew though... which is too bland for me as well.

Nice Nigerian dishes! but you can still not do without the foreign bites! Here is a good example for you here!

Burgers are an American classic but they're often loaded with fat and calories. The good news is that there are a lot of easy ways to create delicious, low-calorie burger patties.

Best 3 among these are bitter leaf, melon and garden egg soup.

Meanwhile I wonder how many are comfortable using fork for swallow sad. #MyOpinion
i cherish ugu vegetable soup especialy when garnished with other soup; egusi, ogbona, stew. Okra and stew is also great

Good for you but bear in mind that the percentage of ladies with excellent cooking skills have reduced greatly. Whether igbo, yoruba or hausas, the standard have reduced

Afang and Edikang Ikong Soup are delicacies owned by Akwa Ibom and Cross River, just as the Banga soup is native to Deltans. The perverted version called 'Ofaku' is what the Igbos prepare. We would say they are 'borrowed' soups to the Igbos.

Almost every soup out there is nutritional. Picking these few foods/soups is not enough.
one can easily notice your inferiority from your post. Igbos have been eating ofe akwu centuries before banga ever became a cocortion. Most good soups you see including egusi are all originally Igbo soup.

banga ko fireworks ni

Stop talking nonsense. There's nothing perverted to about Igbo ofe akwu.

We eat it with rice while Deltans eat with pounced yam or any kind of swallow.

Thanks for the correction. cheesy

I'll give an instance; imagine the Hausas using Ofe Onugbo (my favourite Igbo soup grin) as stew, it still does not change the fact that its origin is not Hausa. Here are some things to note;

1. The ingredients used (say Ofe Onugbo, the leaves and other necessary ingredients, such as the cocoyam, which is alien to the Hausas).
2. Ties of such foods, betterstill, variations of such foods (what you use as stew is the signature soup of Deltans).

Palm fruits are not alien to Igbos, for sure, but then again, it is only someone who is new to foods that would assume the Ofe akwu is not a variation to the Banga Soup of the South-South folks.

Bro believe me it's not borrowed, being the signature soup of the deltans doesn't mean it's originated from Deltans. For a example I have a friend from edo state who once told me that their signature soup is egusi(from here part of edo state o) but we all know the origin of egusi soup.
