With Gamine, I can see what I am going to get: As they say, a bird in hand is worth ten in the bush.  Thanks any way, and thank you Gamine.

Once in a while, I fly to parties in London, so I am familiar with the terrain.  With Nigeria, I will need a visa, and some 6 hours just to get out of the concourses (did I mention that I have not been in Nigeria for years?).

No wonder you've lost touch with the cooking prowess.abeg visit 9ja pronto! lipsrsealed lipsrsealed grin

Dear koolchicco;

I will report to Nigeria with immediate effect; as soon as I complete my malaria shots. (lol).

Never had cooking prowess! While in Nigeria, my mom did not allow the boys to cook. We could make fried plantains and eggs or make coffee or very light things out side meal times, but the boys were never allowed to make meals Don’t get me wrong, we wanted to help but we were not allowed.

In college, it is mandatory that all freshman students stay in the dormitory, so I got use to dormitory life from Jump Street. Sorry, my college does not have one of those two per room dorms; you have your own fully furnished apartment and the money for meals were billed into the dorm rent. The good thing is that the meals are buffet style, all you can eat; so, I never wasted my time trying to cook.

Now that nostalgia has started kicking in; koolchicco, I am in trouble!

Thanks for the breast offer Koolchicco; No interest in men's breast (lol).

However, I will pay you 1,500 Naira for Sunny Bobo's address, (the bongo music guy). I love his music and need to contact him.

Re: Just Doesn’t Taste Like Moi Moi! by Nobody: 10:38pm On Sep 30, 2009
Originally, I washed and dried cans to use in cooking the moi moi. However, when I came to use the cans, I noted that some of them had rusted. That is why I shelled out ninety dollars plus tax for six Pyrex dishes ($15 each) , at Kitchen Aide. The moi moi was still a disaster!

Lol, all because of moi moi? grin Keep your cans dry, that's all I can say. I use the cans once though.

Sweetheart, it is [b]no[/b]t because of moi moi;  it is because of nostalgia.
[Slow water runs deep]

I did oven-dry the discarded cans very thoroughly; they still rusted before I could use them, even once!

Mine has never rusted. I use the tomatoes in them, wash the cans, air dry them, then put them in the cupboard. When I want to make moi moi, I rinse them and I'm good to go. I throw them away when I'm done.

Thanks a million. I am already stuck with $215 vat, and six (6) Pyrex dishes ($90). If nothing contraindicates them, I'll use them for my next attempts.

Believe me, I thank everyone. The advices I have gotten are invaluable. If all else fail, I'll get a wife.

Roflmao!!! If you are having this trouble, I bet you wouldn't even know how to wrap the moi moi paste in leaves, or can you? grin

Yes, I can wrap moi moi paste in leaves, I use to watch mom do it. For the life of me, I don’t know what the leaves are called. So, I guess that settles that!
Re: Just Doesn’t Taste Like Moi Moi! by delvinmaya(m): 12:07am On Oct 01, 2009
leaves are just like plantain leaves, funny thiong is where i leave which is not far from the market, its sold quite cheap.20 naira

That’s a good start, plantain leaves. Now, where can I get plantain leaves: I live in NE of United States?
Re: Just Doesn’t Taste Like Moi Moi! by Gamine(f): 1:36am On Oct 01, 2009
Dude, use the aluminium baking pan, sell the pyrex or wrap em as gifts.
Get a wife? What are the chances she'll make it well

Good thinking.  I'll try the pans.  I have no guarantee that a wife will help!

Incidentally, do you need Pyrex dishes in excellent condition?  Used only once; and the best part is that it is free, including postage.

Sir,

Where is my Sunny Bobo's contact information?

Wives are very important (my darling mother use to be one until she died); but for now, I'll settle for just the moi moi. Sincerely, my wife does not need to know how to cook, I can comfortably afford two cheffs, if the need arises (I did not spend 8 years in college and graduated top of my class for nothing).

Now sir; Go get my Sunny Bobo's contact and I will subscribe to your site. You also forgot to tell me how much the info will set me back?
