Naza longtime o..


Different strokes for different folks....I know we have ogiri that comes in smelly paste like well wrapped with leaves and sold 20-50naira in the local market around some states in the south east.

Okpei is that very black smelly stuff too, it's different from the usual ogiri.

Their is also Iru from yoruba, in a small seed like form well fermented. It gives similar taste like when u use the ogiri in Igbo markets.

We also have the peeled seeds of ugu, cooked wrapped and left to ferment for some days... My people use it in uha soup and the palatable ofe Owerri as well.

Ogiri for porridge and ukwa?.......indeed there are different methods of cooking.......thanks for enlightening me.

pocohantas:


Thanks for this. We don’t really eat it in my part of the SE. I hate it sef, can’t stand it. This was my first time of using it and an Anambra person actually suggested it.

sassysure:

In my place, ogiri can be used to make bitter leave yam porridge. Sprinkle some dry fish on top and

We use it to make ji afìfìa( gosh, I miss home. ).
Do they still do this. That's one of my best way to eat yam.

Goalnaldo:
I can't even tell them apart lol. You Delta Igbo?

nazablossom:
I am aware of these as well.You know your condiments well. You must be a good cook .

Munzy14:

I learnt while growing up..
No sis, all boys.

It's been a while, seems u took a break, abii u preparing for bbn5..

Munzy14:

The difference is the addition of scent leaf for Igbos. I used banga so people who aren't Igbo will flow with the discussion.

Palm fruit is called banga in our pidgin especially for SS people(delta and rivers precisely).


Akwu is it's Igbo name.

Ofe is soup in Igbo.

nazablossom:
No wonder, you don't have an option.

I'm waiting for season 5 .

Munzy14:

Lol, I have option o, As far as bae knows how, I don't have bizness with kitchen department o.... Unless I want to do pampering.

Just that she z Abia.. And u know abians are limited To few native soups in addition to achara stuffs.


Yea we anticipate for the new season.

chii8:
In Igbo,it's called okpei and the sister also ogiri.

Macsjebs:
E dey sweet for okro and ewedu

blazer90707:

IT seems you like a lot of native foods oo. I guess you and bae would just strike a balance . You would cook all the native soups and special special delicacies while she would cook the normal ones she knows

nazablossom:
Ogiri isi can be used to make ji afifia but onubu as the vegetable. We don't use it with ji afifia with "green" as vegetable rather we use ukpaka. I'm already salivating typing this

Pavore9:
@TigerFoods, what is the shelf life and the weight of this Ugu pack? Is your ogiri product already in the market?

sassysure:


Heee
U are indeed daughter of the soil.

I have thought of buying ùkpaka(ùgba) from amazon.
My kids love to eat it with yam and oil.
