Afriqan:
I love all 5 Yoruba soups: Efo Riro, Ewedu + Gbegiri, Okro soup and Egusi... Yum!

Actually there are more Yoruba soups which are now virtually lost to urbanisation. Ebolo (like coriander) and Worowo (bologi) soups for instance are made from highly nutritious vegetables. It's only recently that I started seeing ebolo in some Lagos markets though It's a seasonal veggie and most common around Osun/Oyo states.

There's also Obe Isapa (roselle) with or without egusi that is taken with pounded yam and Elegede (field pumpkin) soup.

Your dead brain igbo father hate so tey u don de hate ewedu too...lol. Bro your entire household is doomed with exception of nobody.

That's so true. We lost most of our traditional foods to westernisation. We are always the ones to stop a child from speaking our native language and adopting bread and sardine instead of Eba and Egusi... SMH

Apart from Nsala soup, I've eaten all

36STATES:


They like to give everything their Yoruba names. Like none existent Ofada rice. Even rice grown in the north and east are called Ofada rice by average Yoruba man, even though there is no rice grown in Ofada in any significant quantity. They even have Abakeleke and Sokoto rice bagged and lebled Ofada rice.

Don't mind them, that is their way na.

Unluckily for them, people are wiser now and can see through that cunning act.

All minus 1, 11, 12

Cooked all. The ibibio white soup version of ofe nsala. Made Miyan kuka for food and nutrition practical. #cookingisfun

BlackyOne:


how would you like to be treated to your second Banga soup experience?

Looking forward to that day yuh. I would like it nicely packaged with enough side attractions ( if you know what I mean) and delivered to my door step.

Can you cook?

People are becoming wiser now. People now know that those veggies are highly nutritious. Those living abroad are sending their kids for Yoruba language and culture lessons.

Yorubaritua1ist:

Says a yoruba man.. I guess ofe onugbu,oha,nsala,ogbono soup,ofe owerri and the rest are borrowed..igbo is the tribe that have highest number of different cuisines in Nigeria

White soup belongs to Efik/Ibibios, ibos cooked a borrowed version.
Vegetable soups ain't ibo's forte. Oha soup is a watery soup with some sprinkle of scent leaves. Bitter leaf soup is a general delicacy.

gasparpisciotta:
Igbo have the best soups of all the tribes....salute!

not true, all are variations of the same thing

oluwaseyi0:

I don't know but what I do know is that we south west don't have much soup probably just 3 or 4 popular soup variety and that's all

My Igbo family friend on the other hand is always cooking different stuff, they can afford to rotate soup for complete two months without repeating any variety, Yoruba options will be exhausted in less than 2 weeks of regular cooking considering you cook soup every four to five days

We have many actually. I mentioned some in my previous post. Some like ogbono (apon in Yoruba) and bitter leaf soup are also traditional Yoruba soups.

I learnt from the elders who grew up in the villages. We do have different types of vegetables cooked in various ways but most are hardly available in city markets. Some are seasonal.

For instance, I don't see amunututu (local spinach) in markets but it's usually available in Asian/Lebanese stores.

Box18:
Why una not put ogwho soup ? that soup na one in a million.

no owho, no black soup, no groundnut soup, op is a joker

Egusi is an Igbo name.

femi4:
The combo is superb with Tuwo. You're limiting yourself

Better with Amala and ponmo and titus fish. Very light and delicious

malcom1X:


Evusi is an Igbo name.

no it isn't. No tribe can claim egusi. It is universally nigerian

Egusi
Efo riro
Ewedu
Gbegiri
Okro
Ogbno
White soup
Miyan kuka

After i jam one babe from that axis, i threw away all ibo soups. ibo soups are borrowed soups.

Longsleeve:
I've tried 7.. Egusi still remains the best..

I don't think I will like Gbegiri and ewedu..


South south.

You lied.

Ewedu and that gbegiri na turn off for me.

Bitterleaf soup all the way

FuckAllTheMODs:


Which one is efo riro?

OP, the proper name is vegetable soup since it cut across different tribes.

I have eaten all but I don't think I can eat any of gbegiri, ewedu, miyankuka etc again or anytime soon. I had them during my years as a student and as a corp member.
My favorite is onugbo mixed with fresh egusi or Ogbono soup or onugbo alone...
The mixing is learnt from frequent patronizing of restaurants back then.

there a difference between vegetable soup and ego riro

Borrowed? They have bitterleaf soup, oha, ofe Owerri, ofe nsala, etc. I love soups. So I cooked practically all. And I like to learn the soups from an indigene

South south, those people dey cook food.

Google about the health benefits. It's taken in other parts of the world, not just Yorubaland.
