Oh boy, throw it away and cook another soup. I hope you know what's called 'food poisoning'?

Eya, Pele it's gone. You fit rinse and reuse all the orisiri you put inside sha 🤣😔

Kobojunkie:
Try adding one or more of the following as you cook/warm it.

* Maggi seasoning or any bullion/taste enhancement of your choice,
* Palm Oil
* Pepper
* Bay leaf or Iru
* finely sliced tomatoes and maybe pre-fried(this is for those who don't mind tomatoes in their egusi)

Thank me later

bad situation manager, you forgot to tell op to get ready for diarrhea.

Omoh yesterday I prepared a delicious egusi soup, garnished with chicken breast, pomo, goat meat, titus fish, dry fish and okporoko (stock fish)--in addition to other essential ingredients like spicy (knorr and star), pumpkin leaf, etc etc.

Had a go at it yesterday evening and it was really good
Then I warmed it like around 11:00pm.

This morning, I warmed it like around 8:00 am; I would have frozen it in my freezer but I was expecting a fellow friend who'd told me he would be coming around so I didn't see the need for freezing it yet.

Now, this evening, I just remembered it when it was already 9:50pm--that's the thing sometimes with remote work; one could get engrossed in it sometimes especially if it's my kind that has to do with coding/programming and code analysis.
I just totally forgot

By the time I got to the soup, I saw it was almost starting to "foam", and I quickly put it on fire. After warming, it doesn't have the fresh taste it had anymore. Tastes a LITTLE bit sour and lacking flavour

Has anyone experienced this? What did you do to the soup (or what can be done)? Food experts.

Mods...

Just place two cubes of charcoal inside The soup ,by the left and right side and watch wonders happen.

You’re should have put a little charcoal inside

Kobojunkie:
I use tomatoes in cooking my egusi and experience none of what you claim. I have used my method to revive many soups so I can't agree with any of what you claim.

We don't agree with each other. 1-1

Catastrophic 😂😂

Rayd502:
You can't get back that freshness...Egusi soup is one soup that requires preservation in a fridge immediately it cools following it's preparation.

With all the condiments you prepared it iwith ,it must have been so tasty. Losing a pot of soup in this Tinubu era is catastrophic.

Oh my God 😂 😂 😅 😅 🤣

Acidosis:
Discard it. It's gone forever. Before you follow the tips above, ensure you keep some money for some flagyl tablets. You'll need it. Thank God you work from home -easy access to the toilet.

Omo, don't stress it. Females are fashioned by God and nature for their roles. Same way you as a man, I suppose, is fashioned by God for your roles too. As you're amazed by what a woman can do, they're amazed by what you can do as well.

The soup is NOT spoilt, just that it lost most of its taste.
See, married women are really trying o! Taking care of the home and kids with their husbands, and also attending to their works; they never seem to forget the foods in the pots like I just did. Any man that does not appreciate the labour women go through in order to tend the home needs to rethink. Not married yet, but I remember how my mom was always the keeper of the home and my dad the bread winner.

Can also think of how sellers handle egusi, palm oil, banga, fresh fish, pepper, crayfish, the lots.

We4all:
Have you thought about how sellers handle charcoal and the poor sanitary conditions in which it is produced? That is enough reason for it not to be used on anything edible.

Using charcoal is definitely not healthy. People are really suffering in the hands of mama put.

Charcoal is made from peat, coal, wood, coconut shell, or petroleum. Activated charcoal is made by heating charcoal in the presence of a gas. This process causes the charcoal to develop lots of internal spaces or pores. These pores help activated charcoal trap chemicals.

Activated charcoal is commonly used to treat poisoning. It is also used for high cholesterol, hangovers, and upset stomach, but there is no strong scientific evidence to support most of these uses.

Experts do not recommend activated charcoal detoxes for general use. Unless the levels of toxins are high, the body is typically able to detoxify itself. Activated charcoal is only effective against certain toxins in certain circumstances. Doctors use it to remove specific poisons from the body shortly after ingestion.

All those Proteins you added in the Soup was even too much it may have led to it depreciating quickly also let Egusi Soup breathe!!

😂😂😂
Ofe ya agbaala uka..

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

E shichaa ofe taa, echi ya agbaa uka. Typical of guys.

Put charcoal inside and thanks me later

Reduce the use of onion in eguisi soup, onion is oxidable (cant explain that now) and also, immediate after warming ur food , allow the steam to to evaporate out of the pot , please dont close the steam (vapor) back into the pot , if posible fan the food so that it will be cold again , once it's cold , it can never sour for that day. Repeat the same process every day for four days , but buy the fifth day, the equisi go done weak out of over warming.

Will one eat the charcoal too?

And what is activated charcoal?

Kizyte:
Add 3 or 4 average size of activated charcoal to your soup (wash off dust from the charcoal before use), and cook for about 30 minutes. Remove the charcoal and you're good

Activated Charcoal will absorb the bad taste and smell.

Bros go and get curry leaf slice put inside.. the food Wey go Calabar go come back Lagos. We dey warm food come back to life in those days for UNIBEN HALL 4. bros send my 4k for me 8035584750 OPAY

Refrigerating it would av been his best option.
Well he learnt his lessons the best way.

So, your grandma adds charcoal to her soup? The poster talked about putting charcoal inside egusi and I said it isn't healthy. What are you hyperventilating about?

....What makes it unhealthy, pocket doctor?

∆ bad situation manager, you forgot to tell op to get ready for diarrhea.

Which of the above do you not already currently add to your food that you foresee causing you diarrhea when you do?

So which market person go go buy activated charcoal from?

Love800:

No! After cooking your spoilt soup with the charcoal in it, remove the charcoal.

Ignore the word "Activated", use the normal charcoal you know (it's already activated).

Okay.
Will it remove the sour taste eventually?
Or
It will just make it nice for some period of time?

If you are in Nigeria search google, ''Where to buy activated charcoal locally'' you will find several outlets where it is sold. You can still purchase it via Jumia.com, Konga.com or Mano.

Just add one or two charcoal in the soup and warm. The sour smell and taste will disappear

iichidodo:
[color=#1986BC] The soup has gone bad and has started decomposition albeit in an unpalatable state...The main culprits are the flesh components of the soup, chuck them out...Then buy fresh fish or meat, parboil them and sautee them before adding the whole package into the soup to bring back that aroma and flavor... You're welcome. [/color]

You are correct.

As far as it has been heated with high temperature

Kizyte:

No be true abeg! We are talking temperatures up to about 500 degrees. Most people in Nigeria don't have that kind of heating capacity.

Well I have taken time to read those comments, well the person that told you to add charcoal was actually right .
I was once in this situation, all you need do is to warm the soup and while it's warming add a piece or two of charcoal to the soup , it absorbs the sour taste then set it aside. In another pot dice onions and fry it with palm add a little pepper and let fry, then transfer the warmed soup into the fried onions and pepper but remove the charcoal first . It's does wonders
