I was about 9 years old and it was ogbono soup. My aunt had bought the ingredients to make the soup in the evening upon her return. I took the risk as she wasn't around. Lo and behold, it came out superb! She was happy and surprised at the same time. 3 Likes |

Dad was a catereer and he runs a restaurant so plenty workers. Cooking wasn't really a thing anyone think about. Mine wasn't soup, it was porridge. I was about 14,after I av been to a boarding school and I see alot of my friends talking about how well they cook. I told my mum, she just brush it aside like u will definitely know how to cook when the time is right. One day she went to the mkt and normally she is suppose to return my 4 so I quickly took a small portion of yam I saw in the shop, diced it and started preparing porridge. Not like I av seen anyone does it before but I am tasted it several times so I was just guessing all the ingredients. Immediately I put off the stove, mum landed, after offloading her stuffs. She ask whats? I said porridge she said give me some. Where. She finish that she ask for another portion, I quickly told her that's av eaten so I would eat as she wants. Long story short, until her death, I am still the best yam porridge chef she knew. Thanks mum for not scolding me, maybe if u had it would have killed the desire I av in cooking. Love you always as I continue to miss u 8 Likes 1 Share |

Re: The First Soup You Ever Made unsupervised; Share Your Experience. by Eddygourdo(m): 3:41pm On Apr 14, 2021 |
Anyway in my case. It was beans. I cooked it for over two years without ever getting it . normal beans oh. For reasons best known to it it refused to be soft no matter the akanwu I pour inside. Anyway I later realized after years of purging. That I should be patient and let it soften before I add palm oil. For the life of me, till this day I can't make pap or custard. The thing will refuse to thicken for me. I have learnt stew (palm oil and vegetable oil) thanks to pocohantas. I am now expert at least I think. The people who ate the stew are still alive 6 Likes |

Can't remember the first soup I made. But I remembered I always cook under duress. Mum will tell bros to cook and off to the market, bros will assume chairman position and start ordering me around with cane. And when mum is back, he will take all the glory. 3 Likes 1 Share |

NYSC. Mine was stew though. My university was in the same city where my parents lived so na to give my sisters money,dem go cook,I go carry put for front seat carpet, go my house. Then NYSC came,it was in a village(Yoruba speaking part of Kogi). I went to eat in the village restaurant and encountered that thing wey make us de call them ofe mmanu ppl(no offence meant ) Called my mum and she texted me things to buy to make tomato stew. As I was frying the tomato and listening to my mum on the phone to know when the tomato will get done,everything turned black in my very before The second attempt many days later,stew was still tasting like raw tomatoes after I finished cooking. I jejely picked all my meat with fork and ate Still don't know the miracle of how to know when tomato paste turns to stew when frying. Das all. As for soup,I think I attempted egusi once during that NYSC and the result was disastrous. Thank God I redeployed *Edited During that same NYSC I attempted cooking beans and rice jellof. Started boiling the rice first and added beans later cos in my own thinking beans is soft naa so should cook first. That one,na dustbin later get am 7 Likes 1 Share |

Hehe. Growing up, I hated Egusi soup (now my favourite ). Ordinarily, I could eat anything, but mom knew I didn't enjoy eating Egusi. My immediate elder brother actually hated it more. He just can't swallow more than one or two hands. Mom noticed all that and sometimes would go: "Una no go kill me, how many soup una want me to dey cook? After I cook morning, afternoon, night? Make Una learn how to cook so that Una go dey cook watin Una like" ( ) Oboi, me, I gats chop the Egusi like that oh. While my bro would be looking for leftover lunch to chop in the night . Unless we Sabi cook... (Mom's condition) The thing was, momsy was very very territorial when it comes to her kitchen, especially when she's inside cooking . Only my eldest sis could go in and out as she pleases. Momsy hardly ever ask that we join her to Cook. You can only look from afar. Popsy was aware about mom's cook what you want ultimatum and was planting ideas in me and my bro's head . He'd go: "make Una try cook, them (mom or sis) go help una. Una fit try Okro or groundnut soup, them no too hard. Just do like this do like that!" After collecting enough moral, I started hovering around the kitchen and stealing techniques. Soon, I declare myself reading so when Egusi came on the menu again, I said I wanted to cook Okro soup. After returning playing football one evening, momsy told me there's pot, ingredients and kitchen waiting for me, Go and cook your soup! I was both excited and nervous. Face to face with the task, I didn't know exactly what to do anymore or how to start. Then, my sis came to collect her own dinner and saw bro and I staring at the stove and smiling. She just calmly explained to us what to do and the steps to take. Then, left us to actually do it. I handled the cooking entirely, but my bro was there to make sure we didn't miss any of the steps my sis instructed. The results...? It turned out fantastic. Me and bro ate right there in the kitchen. For once, we could take the meat and fish we desired from our pot of soup . We went to the parlor and sat down, brimming from ear to ear. Mom then went to the kitchen and took her own food. To our utmost surprise, she actually took from the Okro soup we prepared and not her Egusi After eating a few dose, she went: "ah, e sweet oh. So Una Sabi cook like this! I no need to teach Una Okro soup again, Una Sabi cook that one pass me". Words are poor substitutes to use to explain to you guys how I felt that day. That marked the beginning of a soup cooking spree for me and my bro. 6 Likes 3 Shares |
