That It's Nsukka food dosnt mean its eaten only in Nsukka naa,haba grin Nsukka attached to it is where it originated from, just like tuo is referred to as Hausa food or afang soup as a Calabar soup. All through my stay at Awka, i always see my Anambra friends buying it, especially around that Regina junction side, that road going to the Cathedral but all of them still refer to it as Nsukka food . But they don't add pomo like this one shaa
ooo grin
Point of correction.
Achicha is never an Enugu or nsukka delicacy rather igbo delicacy mostly eaten by old anambra people from awka to Enugu, ekwulobia to nsukka.
My grand parents made and ate achicha, they grew up with it and we are not from Enugu state. I even prepared it from scratch in my village.
The same goes with okpa.
What you will rather say is that Enugu state way of making both is more popular and because of that, everybody assumed those delicacies came from Enugu state.
Another example is abacha and ùgba. Imo abacha is the most popular. Anambra eg has their way of making abacha and Enugu is not left out. Asia make like imo but with slight diff in taste.
All these are igbo food enjoyed by igbo people over the centuries. Let's not politicise them.

Its not the conventional beans we eat in Nigeria.Its Igbo ppl beans .Dark brown and shiny like beads and cooks for hrs
It is not igbo people beans.
Igbo don't cultivate fiofio. Middle belt do.
The name is pigeon pea. Eaten and cultivated all over the world except Europe and North America.

Ike gwuru nnaa

For those asking it's made with fiofio(or agbugbu).na local beans in the east that beans alone can keep you fill for 24hrs after consumption.Then There is ukpaka creyfish onions,

Truth is this is not a sharp sharp food oh,it takes hours for the beans to done..I mean hours or else you use pressure cooker..The crushed dried cocoyam and be left in water for hours infact the whole process is tedious but always worth it at the end

No be to add sodium bicarbonate to the agbugbu to reduce the cooking time, while also putting a lot of spoons and 6 inch nails inside the pot.
(Omo, my phone was confused when I was typing agbugbu, it didn't know how to auto correct it, grin)

Are you saying growing up in Lagos as onye Igbo is an excuse not to know what udu-mmiri is? That is inexcusable.
