@chiejik, tanx for your response. Please how can i get the uziza leaf? and also, which meat is better to cook it with? cow meat or goat?

go to the market just tell them uziza leave ,it has this lovely sent.then the meat goat meat preferably but if they dont eat gaot meat make it beef then add intestine to it.

the best meat is either goat meat or chicken either frozen or live chicken

preparation(ingredients)
1 meat as mentioned above
2 dry fish
3pepper
4 uziza leaf
5 utazi leaf
6 crayfish
7 maggi n okpei(optional but it makes d soup to come out well)
8 ashi or small pounded yam  that will serve as a thickner

note to remenber pls d utazi n uziza will not be muchoooo just 10naira utazi cos it has a little bitter taste and 20naira uziza cos of d flavour


boil yr meat to be soft n ensure u season with salt ,maggi n small onions
as the meat is gd fr eating, add yr well washed dry fish, grinded crayfish and pepper, grinded okpei n maggi.small ashi or small pounded yam fr thickner salt to taste.
u can add a little red oil and den wash n cut yr utazi n uziza leaf and add waooooo by now d soup is making meaning by sending a pleasant aroma outside.allow d poudedyam to dissolve very well.

Was wondering which one was white soup. Uziza is good but if you can't find it, it doesn't really change the taste of the nsala.

As for the best meat for nsala soup, I think fresh fish either tilapia or catfish or if there are others is the best. Chicken and goat meat can be used as well.

I just wanna see what white soup looks like
Someone pls, post the pix

Don't really know why it's called White Soup, maybe because you don't use palm oil to cook it, but i learnt it's called Nsala soup, anyway, it looks something like this and very delicioussssssssssssss, mmmmhhhh, 

looks nice,yea that is it.because their is no palm oil on it

can someone use poundo yam instead d real pounding with pestle and mortar?

and for how long can d soup stay?

I'm not really sure about dat, but i think you can as long as it thickens the soup a bit. Soups in general can stay for as long as 3-4days when kept in the freezer or frigde (dat is if light dey o ), so White soups should'nt be an exception.
