I've seen some greenish ones and they are usually watery and not that appealing. Do you know some real hausa delicacies that are very appealing? Do they use palm oil at all to cook?
Why do we have ibo and yoruba restraunts everywhere in Nigeria even in sokoto but you cannot see any hausa restraunt(beside aboki me tea and suya spots) anywhere outside the hausaland. Lets not even talk about abroad because i've never seen any hausa food served anywhere around here.

almost all the soups are greenish (dried vegetables). dawadawa is very essential  (i once hated the smell but i started bitting a little bit of it and chew like they do. . . it's not too bad  . it's nice in soups but too  . Goose goose, Pete and Acha are meals I know to have bright color (vegetable oil and tomatoes made it so i guess. Yakuwa, kerikeshi, kuka etc all greenish/darkish but tasty. they hardly or don't use Palm oil in their cooking. ALL vegetable oil. Made sense though (groundnut Pyramid remember that? then i think Okpee is worst than dawadawa though. i love the Zogole salad the most. Overall, i love Hausa soups and their soft tuwon. |

Having schooled and lived in Zaria for nearly 10 years I wont attempt any of their soups. As a student I operated a Restaurant along the New Jos Road and most of the affluent Hausa customers were mainly keen in eating tuwo +egusi soup or Shinkafa de Kwoi de Ayaba (Rice + Fried + Plaintain).
My favourite Hausa delicacy was Kosei + Dankali (Akara balls + Fried irish potatoes).

These are two cereal drinks that are very revitalizing. Fura da nono is very popular in the Northern states especially in Sokoto state where it can be taken any time of the day. Kunun Gyada is also popular in the Northern states especially in Adamawa state. Nono is the Hausa word for cow’s milk sold by the Fulani women. However many people prefer to use plain yogurt to mix with the fura and drink.

Why is it that Hausa people are rarely fat? Could it be because of their food? I'm suspecting their food may have less calories than yoruba and ibo foods.

yeah i think less calories too. . . think of it, tuwon is very common among them. it is a light meal. after eating tuwon, i'm always hungry. compare that with iyan or pondo man, that na hell blazer. their meals are lighter than the ones we have in the south/east/west. they also don't add orishirishi to their cookings, imagine ogbono/egusi/stew with just meat or fish? how many of us will eat a meal without meat or fish or orishirishi? the northernal could eat plain soup. |

I don't joke with Kunu.
In fact I just made some the other day. Very refreshing and wholesome.
Getting millet could be a problem since I couldnt find the red type thats so common at home. Had to make do with some kind of tiny kernel variety.
oyibos don't seem to eat millet- they use it as birdseed instead. But some stores have the kind used for human consumption.

I don't care for those their tasteless meatless foods.
Their culture that appeals to me is the way they flog would be suitors
kai!!
they just line them up and flog the living daylights out of them while the drummers are drumming.
The wimps are weeded out and the brave one gets the chick
Southerners ought to adopt that culture
let's get rid of all the shemales attempting to marry wives.
If you can't survive ordinary 50 lashes of koboko, how can you handle a whole institution called marriage.
