Probably she used it to season the meat.
Nothing wrong in adding VERY LITTLE onions to season the meat when cooking soup.
Onion is a no no for me

Maybe you didn't buy original ogiri. Ogiri is spiritual, the smell is ahhh dunno how to describe it, the taste nkọ inside ọha soup tongue tongue hulala. I even taste mine before adding to the soup grin. I don't buy the already wrapped ogiri, I go for the one they measure aka nke nkonye tongue
When yellow pepper and enough crayfish is added. Ụka agbasa (church dismissed)

Oha soup without akwụ, ede and ogiri is not ọha. Achị, grounded cocoyam, quaker oat should not serve as thickener ooo
I prefer ọha to onugbu

*drops mic*

Then they are cooking poison. am I even talking when most of the non igbos are culture less entities..

You are incorrigible! Gosh
I'd so hate to be near you.
Oha is my native soup and we have never used ogiri or ede for it.
I taught my Ihiala bestie and that was the last time she wasted her time pounding ede.

Majority are, if it hurts so much- then you change. Someone close to me saw this thread and also complaining of you guys attitude. This thread went south because your siblings couldn’t give non-eating ogiri people a break.

Yes, majority of Anambra men have the supremacist mindset. I think you people are taught that from childhood. The ones without that attitude are not up to 17% of the total Anambra population. grin grin

Thanks for replicating, I hope they turn out tastier than mine. wink

Anambra guys bu okwu biri n'onum. F.. Cking supremacist. Any day you post anything relating to Igbos and you didn't massage their ego well then they will condemn everything.

How do their wives/gfs from other states cope with them?

They belong to no one. You have no way of proving that.
We call it Ora and have our way of preparing it, but in Abia and Imo, it's Oha/Uha and they have special way of preparing theirs.
It's arrogant of you to claim to be the originator of a dish a people have been cooking before they knew us, that's delusional.

Ofe Onugbu/Olugbu is universal in Igboland, no one invented it.
Nsala as as old as antiquity in Enu ani as it is in Anambra, it smacks of vain arrogance to claim they learnt it from us. You seriously should stop this.
No IMO or Abia person will claim Nsala, they know it's not their soup, even in Anambra, parts like Orumba don't cook Nsala as a traditional soup.
Isi ewu is a delicacy all parts of Igboland have always enjoyed, the Anambra way of preparing it just seem more popular these days.

Some of you should stop bringing Anambra in direct collision course with our Igbo brothers in the name of unbridled hubris and supremacist tendencies.
Many of us are not like that.

A Daniel has come to Judgement!
Okwu agwugo.
Ofe uha is my traditional soup which we use akparata or ukpo or ofo as thickener.
Their argument just surprises me

Trust me there is nothing special in coking this soup.
Just prepare your normal meats and stock fish as usual.
Then mix up all the mentioned ingredients in a pot and cook. No special timing to add any ingredient.
However put the chunky sliced Oha leafs last. Cover your pot to boil for about 5 more minutes.

You can use palm oil but fresh boiled and meshed and sieved palm fruits is better as it servers as the only cooking water apart from the broths from meats.
If you are not comfortable with coco yam as thicker use pounded yam or even dry package puondo powder.
As a Yoruba girl I would suggest you season it with whatever seasoning you use for gbegiri because its almost the same aroma with the Ogiri they are hyping here. Almost like dawawa used by north.

The truth is that Oha, Nsala and Onugbu is Anambra soup

Okazi and ofe ugu is Imo

Achara soup is Abia

Nsala is more of Anambra and Delta Igbo soup

This is my experience

There is no truth about Oha being Anambra soup.
You can't stay in your lane and tell others their own food.
Oha is enjoyed all over Igboland and no one invented it.
It's even Imo and Abia people that call it Oha/Uha. In Idemili and Anambra central senatorial zone, we call it Ora. Yet the most popular name for the soup is Oha, which is the Imo and Abia version.
Onugbu is also general Igbo soup, all over Igboland everyone cook Onugbu soup and no one learnt from each other. In Abia and Imo they call it Olugbo and most native houses have the Olugbo shrub as its fence.

I was in an Asaba facebook page and they were claiming that Enuani people invented Nsala soup while Anambra people copied them. Lol! I couldn't contain my anger.
Truth is that both Enuani and Anambra have been cooking the soup since time, no one taught each other.

Ofe akwu is typical Anambra delicacy.

Ukazi is Abia /Imo.

I haven't heard of Ugu soup, what exactly is it? We have always cultivated and ate Ugu in Idemili so I don't understand how you say Ugu is Imo soup. Everyone always ate Ugu in Igboland. We traditionally used Ugu to prepare Okwuru soup in my part of Anambra.

There is ugu soup.. I never said that someone invented It . But the truth is that someone stared it


Ora is a soup common with the Anambra folks with biter leaf just like Okazi and Ugba soup is common with Imo folks and Achara common with Abia

Each region has soups just like Edikiakong is an Efik/Ibibio stuff


I love God soups and regions have their soups !

Is this up for debate

You are ffucking stupidd to think we care about your ego massaging as if you are important. Write about things related to your state and we will never open your thread. We dont trespass our boundry , and I advice my Anambra brothers to marry only Anambra women if they really love the state. As long as you are writing about our cultural items we will defend it. baastards !

You don't know what you speak of.

I have been to rural Abia and Imo and they all cook Oha and Olugbu soups as native traditional soups.
They never learnt it from Anambra. Abia and Imo don't know what is Ora. What they know is Uha/Oha and all local compounds there traditionally have Oha trees for easy plucking and cooking of the soup.
You can't start speaking on these things when you have never visited these parts. It's insulting and smacks of arrogance.

There are foods perculiar to parts of Igboland. But Oha and Olugbu is not part of it.
As both of them are very universal in Igboland.

Honestly Sassy, your people are one of the reasons I will never support Biafra. It is going to be like frying pan to fire.

Anambra people will choke the rest of SE states with their oversabi and supremacist mindset. Always acting like their way is the perfect and only way. Everywhere they enter, you must know they are there!! Jeez!

Oh! Adannaya! not again!! You just polluted the beautiful fragrance from on this thread again with this gobbledygook post..
Please, learn to calm down, my dear, would you...

I like to believe, you are old and intelligent enough to have learnt what truly counts in life...
