Goodday fellow members, i need some1 to please help mé out with the procedure 4 preparing pap(Ogi, Akamu) cos i've soaked the corn now 4 two days and yet it has not fermented. Should i still allow it OR should go ahead with the processing? Some 1 shud pls help. Thanks & awaiting ur Quick response.

my mum used to make pap when i was growing up and sadly i have no idea exactly how its done. . . however, i think its supposed to be a certain type of corn u use o. . .

well, wait till a day or two more. if you see some foam on top, then okay to blend.
blend till very smooth. pour the smooth paste into a large bowl. pour cold water into the paste and mix.
now get a sieve and filter. pour the chaff in the seive away and keep the one coming out from the seive.
leave overnight. ogi will be at the bottom after pouring the top water away.

Had the same problem, and kind of gave up trying

Do we need to use fresh corn to do that?

now, this post makes me want to eat akamu again...
